Born in Germany, I am also a New Zealand citizen. I hold Masters Degrees in Ceramics and Art History and  have been working and exhibiting both, in New Zealand and overseas, for the last 35 years. With the focus on colour, I am a (mostly) abstract and minimalist painter, but usually work within the parameters of a specific concept. My sculptures are informed by ancient artefacts and modernist interpretations.

For the last decade my main engagement has been with the Square and Grid – themes that represent one of the paradigms in Modern Art. On that basis, I developed several large series of paintings as well as individual works. Most recently, while spending time in the beautiful Cook Islands, my involvement has been with an art project using materials commonly designated as `waste´.

This website gives an insight into my output to date. Selected works from significant series are placed into an art-historical context which can be read up on under the heading: Context above. Some original works can be purchased and certain paintings are available as small edition digital prints.
