2023 | mixed media on solid historic timber (Brandenburg pine) | original 129 x 33 x 3 cm
In the fusion of raw, natural materials and remnants of paint, this piece manifests as an emotional mirror. It explores the tension between the external security of a "golden cage" and internal turmoil. "werlseeträne" visualizes the painful confrontation with suppressed parts of the self and the deep sadness that often stays hidden behind a facade of stability. The artwork invites us to reflect on the fear of change and to face those shadows necessary to break personal and familial chains. The solid reclaimed wood represents the ancestral lineage and everything it has contributed to this present moment — both opportunities and burdens.
