01.12.2023: Philippistraße

Using primary shapes and colours, the piece transforms the ordinary into a dynamic visual experience. Bold line of geometry converge, offering a fresh and joyful perspective on the familiar surroundings. This digital creation celebrates the power found in the basics of design, inviting viewers to appreciate the beauty of simplicity. The canvas of the shop's exterior becomes a playground for primary hues and forms, creating a harmonious composition that resonates with the essence of uncomplicated, yet striking, artistic expression.

This piece is a simple tribute to a moment of inspiration received during a visit to my brother and his family while they were visiting from the U.K. Their rented flat was located on Philippistraße in Berlin, next door to them was a colorful shop which became the inspiration for the piece. The composition features a yellow triangle resting within a red box, a nod to the lively atmosphere of the adjacent streets.
A key element in the artwork is the incorporation of the shop window, subtly bridging the gap between the private space of the 'inside' and the vibrant public 'outer' facade. This visual connection encapsulates the essence of the surrounding area—a harmonious blend of personal narratives against the lively backdrop of the bustling street.
Adding a touch of urban poetry scrawled onto the façade of the colourful brick work was a single line of graffiti simply stating 'nicht mehr,' inviting viewers to contemplate the transient nature of their surroundings. In essence, this digital work captures a genuine moment of inspiration and serves as a visual postcard from the colorful streets of Berlin, offering a glimpse into the intersection of personal stories and the vivacity of city life.
