A sculpture of a praying priest inside the church of Brauweiler Abbey. Picture taken spontaneously with my old iPhone 8 as this was simply the best camera I had at hand. And in my view it captured the moody atmosphere, which had intrigued me, astonishingly well.

Big Head
Nice contrast between nature, art and human spirit. Seen at a garden exhibition.
BIG Bird
A BIG yellow bird in front of a house in our village. It seems to be a marketing gag for an artist or architect. I need to find out more details.
Fiat Lux

More Street Art…

Die Künstlerin Birgit Hölmer nennt ihre abstrakten Klebebilder “Cuts”. Sie verziert seit Jahren die Schaufenster leerstehender Geschäfte mit ihren Werken. Interessant fand ich, dass die Bilder, je nach Beleuchtung und Blickwinkel im Raum zu schweben scheinen.
The artist Birgit Hölmer calls her abstract adhesive pictures “Cuts”. She has been decorating the windows of vacant stores with her works for years. I found it interesting that the pictures seem to float in space, depending on the lighting and angle of view.

Seit 2009 begrüßt die grasende weiße Giraffe der Künstlerin Sina Heffner die Besucher Wolfsburgs. Sie steht unweit von Theater, Planetarium und Kunstmuseum am Rande einer Hauptstraße. Ich habe mich heute auch mal künstlerisch betätigt und in der zweiten Version des Bildes die Farben verschoben.
Since 2009, the grazing white giraffe by artist Sina Heffner has greeted visitors to Wolfsburg. It stands not far from the theater, planetarium and art museum on the edge of a main street. Today I have also been artistically active and shifted the colors in the second version of the picture.
