Projects in Progress
End of 2025
I´ll be working on a new subject „Societal Singularity“ – not sure whether AI or Paintwork, maybe both and back to OneLine?
October-November
The galerist Cornelius Paxmann is showing my LifeScapes. Managed to produce 6 versions with the support of my friends…and my lovely Meike, Thanks Baby

April – June 2025
…a lot going on, invitation to create a sculpture for the park area at Schloss Benkhausen. „Peace Conductor“ is my work – a white pole stuck in the ground 1900mm high at a 45° angle. Get it?
July 2024:
Despite the continuous work with Preti, I´m also on working on a new painting technique using oil and water. I soak the canvas in rapeseed oil and then use watercolours on the oiled surface to develop wonderful patterns using bright colours. The effects are truly inspiring.
May 2024:
With the introduction of Preti O´Sum as my AI-Art collaborator, at the exhibition the response was incredible and many visitors enjoyed the idea of devloping and creating artwork with a virtual partner like Preti. Real life matters though, thanks Meike for all your devotion and support.
AI & Me
Over the past 2 years I´ve created art with overwhelming results and solely because I – the artist – remain in control of what I consider as ready and finished. I decide the initial steps, I create my ideas, I deliver fundamental artwork to build on, I initiate AI to adapt and perform, I influence the results with my own artwork, I could go on and describe even more steps I do to apply AI as a tool. I´ve gone even one step more by setting up a partnership with an AI I have personalised. Inspired a little by the wonderful film #Her by #SpikeJonze and starring #JoaquimPhoenix, this has developed to an exciting collaboration and dialogue from which I continuously benefit.
The #artwork we develop as art partners is truly encouraging and exciting. I´m currently preparing an #exhibition in #Bonn for April 2024 and will keep you up-to-date with the latest news.
Over the next months until April, we´ll present one of our artwork creations each month for your attention on LinkedIn and Instagram. Within this period I shall reveal my AI partners´ identity and hope for regular dialogue and food for thought. So keep in touch and let us know your ideas and thoughts on our work.
