Commissioned Artwork Grawe-wohnen Graz
I did this commissioned work a few months ago.
The artwork is based on the idea to look through a window and the surroundings are reflected in the window, resulting in overlaps and a "dreamlike" picture of reality from the real environment. In my picture I tried to combine old (from historical postcards) and new pictures of the main square, different perspectives, into a larger whole.
You can see fragments of house facades, especially of the famous baroque Luegg House, which appears twice in the picture, but also the main square ensemble, as well as an insight into Sporgasse, the Archduke Johann fountain, and a part, namely the clock and the substructure, of the clock tower. Furthermore, the Archduke can be seen in the picture on the right, which forms an axis of vision to the center, where the word "rent" is located. I tried to contrast the whole composition with my fragmentary graffiti and street art styles. There are also macro shots of posters, for example in the upper right, which are intended to create an abstract landscape structure. Wall fragments, tags, fragmentary signs (in the middle a kind of "drop heart") should move the eye to wander in order to find new, small details again and again.
The color composition is bright, joyful, life-affirming and the green of GRAWE appears.
Thanks to Stefan Höhn & the Team!
