About me

Born in Linz in 1956, my artistic journey began in 1974 when I moved to Innsbruck to study theology. In 1994, I relocated to Vienna, where I further developed my artistic concepts. There, I received significant artistic impulses and had the opportunity to participate in both national and international exhibitions.

Among my notable achievements are awards in graphic art competitions. Several of my works have been acquired by the Province of Tyrol and the Federal Ministry of Education and Art. My poetry collection Ortstiefen was published by Edition Doppelpunkt in Vienna.

My art can be characterized by - thinking further about forms, finding new points of reference, discovering complexity, and feeling tranquility.
