Another interesting year.
After having recovered from my trip to Surinam end of 2010 I went logging in Bavaria. Nice big trees in the mountains. After that I drove to Munich where I got a place in Galerie Flash, a nice young galerie with great work. Than I went to Dresden and slept in someones garden after some Turkish driúmming drove me too wild. I made some new work in a friend s atelier near the Czech border and drove to Holland from where I left to the rain forest in Cameroon where I spend quite some time with the Baka people. It definitely changed my life, chewing tree bark with the medicin man, healing, following bees for their honey, making music on traditional instruments, uncovering some wrong doing by evil European logging companies and checking a desastrous project by a blue eyed Dutch sleepy NGO. I got sick and some people attacked me on my way home, but fortunately I survived and made it. Back in Holland I took some time to recover at my dear parents place (thank you!) and heaqded back to East Germany where I had some exhibitions and made some new work. I got invited to work and stay at a friend s place and finally found a place to live in an old 1940 wagon I got from some guy a few villages away. Now I am working in an old barn from 1700 something and am living in the wagon after having roamed around for more than a year. Home is where the heart is. I d♥ !
