Theatrum mundi

In my new series „Theatrum mundi“, I portray a generation which pursues mobility and learning on a global scale and without boundaries, yet whose misgivings, fears, and unfulfilled yearnings at the same time mirror the flipside of the very freedom that affords the individual access to modernity all over the world.

To gain insight into our present age, I look back to times of change ranging from the Baroque period to the Enlightenment, a time, in which the parameters of our social constitution have been defined. I have created metaphoric and symbolic images at historic locations such as the Goethe Theatre in Bad Lauchstädt, which allow viewers insight into the outer representation and the hidden inner world of the protagonists.
