Born in Austria, I lived and worked for 4 decades in Canada where I also studied art, graduating with great distinction from the University of Lethbridge. I recently returned to my roots in Vienna and am now working in my studio at the Kunstquartier Wien. ABOUT MY WORKS "These are universal archetypes that are found deep inside a collective subconscious. While seemingly alien and strange, they are also strangely familiar. I take the viewer into an area that they had entered before only in another existence, or in dreams. It is a 'method in this madness' but everything is created by exclusion of conscious leadership. The work is growing seemingly by itself, like ice flowers on a windowpane."
