„… that I may know what holds the world together at its core." Goethe, Faust I For me, the beginning of a new work is a dedication to the moment; the brush then follows suit, with either oil or acrylic. In my lengthy work process, forms crystallize and are repeatedly reshuffled until the abstract composition is orderly and clear, and glows from within. I studied architecture in order to create spaces for people. Through painting, spaces open up in which I explore what defines people. My pictures don’t tell stories, but are far more places where a narrative can take place. My emphasis is on the discovery of what it means to be human. Koki van Trotten, Berlin 2024
