von Rick Steffen
I wanted to explore what space means to my paintings and how I could incorporate it into my work. The works of Mark Rothko in the Rothko Chapel and Claude Monet´s Water Lilies in the Orangerie Paris, which are adapted to the room in which they are presented in, inspired me, to twist this concept around and make the actual painting a space to experience.

Another inspiration was a physical concept of time, whose form depicts the form of the installation. I wanted to evoke a feeling of being trapped or locked. This happened out of personal reasons only, but at the same time turned out quite fitting to the situation many people are in right now.
