2011–2026 EXHIBITIONS


Alongside my work as a graphic designer and illustrator, as well as my teaching activities, I began actively exhibiting my work after returning from England. My screen prints were based on my independent artistic practice, focusing on rapper portraits and urban architecture. In 2015, fine art prints and paintings were added to my screen prints.

STUDIOS AT FRIEDEL


In 2017, I moved into my studio at Friedel. Plenty of space for creative ideas. Together with the other artists, we took part in the annual Long Night of Museums.

After seven years at Friedel, I decided to give up the studio, partly because the working world had changed significantly due to COVID-19. Working remotely in Spain made me realize that a laptop, an iPhone, a pen, and paper are all I need to work as a graphic designer. I am now free to work from anywhere, whether in a café in Stuttgart city centre, in Spain, in Berlin, or simply in my now smaller office.

Syndicate of Artists


SOA began as an idea in my youth and eventually became an online shop for art prints. This was followed by exhibitions in my own studio featuring fellow artists from Stuttgart, Brazil, and India. Participating artists included Marco Stifel and Selcuk Yasar (friends and fellow artists from Stuttgart), Davor Bakara and Clarissa Herion (from the Illustratoren Organisation, IO), as well as Rocco Nahas Fergundez (BRA) and Shivaji Sen (IND), fellow students from the UK.

As exhibitions were only possible to a limited extent during the pandemic, I gave SOA a new direction and began producing high-quality T-shirts, hand-printed using three-colour screen printing. What had started with graffiti, art prints, and a loose artist collective evolved into a streetwear brand for hip-hop T-shirts.

In December 2021, I began exploring NFT art. Not as a form of investment, but as a way to publish digital art and give non-physical art value, along with proof of authenticity and originality. For the time being, this marked the latest stage in SOA’s journey.

Zusammen mit der Aufgabe des Ateliers im Friedel in Cannstatt, ist das Projekt SOA vorübergehend aber auf unbestimmte Zeit on hold. Der Fokus liegt inzwischen vorrangig auf der Arbeit als Grafik Designer und Illustrator. Also dem Hauptgeschäft als Bureau of Art & Design.
