Ever since I was a small child, I’ve been fascinated by big images. Whether it’s photography, graphics or painting. Big images do something to the space, they become part of it. I like that. They are present, they can’t be avoided. They always demand our attention. Nostalgia Economika is a series of paintings and digital prints produced in large formats. The drawing in the background is from banknotes from around the world. Nostalgia because what we call money is in flux, and in many places banknotes are no longer exchanged for coins. Now digital transactions are taking over and banknotes are on their way out. Along with them, a social interaction that lasted for thousands of years. The state and central bank are losing not only a means of representation, but also control over the definition of what money is and will be in the future. A little nostalgia is allowed. The colors in the image are applied with a brush in several but thin layers and are intended to completely break up the message of the money motif. They simply have nothing to do with each other and that’s how it should be. FineArt print / Giclée to ensure longevity and colour accuracy + acrylic UV protection, coated with brush.
