Work 324/7 by Political Satirical Pop Art in Berlin
Work 324/7
This painting shows seven men in dark suits, white shirts and ties standing in front of a gray background and looking intently in the same direction. Their facial features allow us to identify different character traits, but the poses of their bodies are depicted schematically. Expression and pose demonstrate a concentration of power. It becomes clear that these are powerful men, politicians. What effect does this power have on the individual person, the viewer? How does she or he deal with the exercise of power, manipulation?

„I aim to present critical conditions through exaggeration, projecting my overstated perception of our everyday reality onto people or objects via the image and the title. I define my works as ‚Political Satirical Pop Art“.
The exploration of society in the context of the charged dichotomy between power and oppression, law and freedom, is sometimes discreetly, but sometimes also entirely directly, a constant in the works of my works. These works describe societal phenomena that are perceived as “disturbed.” Contemporary themes, issues and events are subjected to artistic reflection and examined in terms of the collective influence of media, politics and history on the individual. These are the sources of my works.
I also utilizes the language of Pop Art, which is both figurative and realistic. Formal structures collide with the figurative image. Evocative visual symbols are incorporated into structures of form, color, line and composition based on painterly technique. Within this context, the selection of motifs is shaped by the philosophy of Critical Theory.
In addition to security products — or devices I begun to explore subjects related on different context.
My large-format acrylic paintings, on socially relevant themes are accompanied by collages on paper caricaturing current events in politics. Word-image constellations to experiment with writing as a graphic element within painting and object art.
