Technique & Materials

Every work in the Modern Madonnas series is a unique original – analog, real, tangible. Nothing is retouched here. Things are layered, torn, applied. Layer by layer, different materials are added, reworked, destroyed and rebuilt, until the surface develops not just depth but its own dynamic.

The result: contemporary collage art with character – alive, authentic, unrepeatable.

Broken Gold

Spray red over gold leaf, coarse enough that you can see each pass. Beneath it a figure crouches, not resisting the material but disappearing into it. The edge between photo and paint isn’t clean, was never meant to be. Gold flakes exactly where skin begins, and no one corrected it. Two layers, one body, no balance. Exists, then never again.

The Creative Process

There is no fixed formula in the Modern Madonnas series. Each work grows from the interplay of material and intuition. The collages are not planned in advance — they develop in the process.

Traces of handwork, small irregularities, deliberate imperfections — the process stays visible here. The works live from the human touch: from visible interventions that show a person, not a machine, was at work. That imperfection is exactly what makes them an authentic example of contemporary collage art.

Every piece is created in close collaboration: the photographic foundation is established by Martin Wieland, while the collage, overpainting and material combinations are developed and executed by his art director Dietmar Halbauer. This creative exchange makes each work a layered, unique original.

Framing

The right frame doesn’t just protect your artwork — it amplifies it. With our custom frames, every piece takes on a new presence and becomes a genuine focal point, whether in a living room, office or gallery.

Touched by Stardust

Printer’s ink first, then acrylic, then the glitter — the order stays legible in the image. Gold doesn’t sit evenly, only where the layer beneath let it through. Some spots stay raw, photo paper without any overpainting. Others vanish almost completely under paint and flake. Between both extremes there’s no compromise, only a standing side by side. Exists only once, then never again.

Yellow Frequency

The head tilts back, blonde hair falling in strands across yellow. One hand grips the chin, fingers pressing lightly into skin — not gentle, not rough, just there. The tattoo on the upper arm is the only thing that survives the overpainting. Everything else disappears under the color or resurfaces in black and white. The mouth is open, but no sound comes out. Maybe it hangs on your wall and you decide what the scream means.

Climax for the Eyes

Two bands of pink, uneven, raw at the edge. Between them, a photograph that didn’t know it would end up framed. Rivets in the background, skin in the foreground, no hierarchy between the two. The overpainting decides what stays visible and what disappears – without explaining why. Whoever hangs this owns the only one.

Ice Queen

White, red, gray—three choices that together create an image that sticks in your mind. The overpainting intervenes without explaining why. The red marks, cuts, frames—and none of these quite captures it. She sits in the center and looks straight at the viewer. Acrylic on paper, with a photograph underneath, making it a one-of-a-kind piece. Whoever hangs this in their home owns the one and only.

There is no fixed scheme in the Modern Madonnas series. Each work is created from the interplay of material and intuition. The collages are not planned in advance – they develop in the process.

Walking Into Beige

Painted black, beige applied, a photo in between that didn’t know what it would become. That’s how this came to be—unplanned, unrefined, not for everyone. The center of the back bears sand or paint—both are possible, and neither matters. What counts is the layer beneath and the decision to stop right there. Paper, acrylic, a pose—and there you have it: a work that exists for a moment and then never again.

Fraction of Gold

The shoulder, the lowered head, the hair falling forward — that was the photograph. Then came the cardboard, the spray paint, the acrylic, the white lines going across. Now it’s both at once and neither one alone. I didn’t plan it — it happened layer by layer until it was done. 100 × 150 cm, one of a kind, hand-signed. This hangs somewhere once — maybe at yours.

Silent Strip

The skyline is now just a memory of a city, washed away in blue, out of focus. The figure in front of it is the opposite: sharp, solid, bare except for gold and netting. The white paint cracks across the entire surface, trying to cover it up, but failing—only making it stand out more clearly. A hand on the chain, the gaze cold and direct. Nothing rests here except her. Touch-up pen, white paint, wax crayon on acrylic glass, painted over by two hands, signed by both. A one-of-a-kind piece that remains standing when the rest of the image has long since faded away.

Cathrill

This is not a face that asks for attention. It takes it. Black ink tears across the features, toxic green bleeds into the skin, a single stroke splits the image like an old scar — and still the eyes stay clear, hard, awake. Looks like destruction, but it’s release. The image smells of the darkroom and a night that went on too long, of control and loss of control in the same moment. Ink, watercolor, William Turner, overpainted by two hands, made this way once. There is no second one, anywhere. You take it because that gaze keeps looking at you, long after you’ve looked away.

Technique & Materials

Every work in the Modern Madonnas series is a unique original – analog, real, tangible. Nothing is retouched here. Things are layered, torn, applied. Layer by layer, different materials are added, reworked, destroyed and rebuilt, until the surface develops not just depth but its own dynamic.

The result: contemporary collage art with character – alive, authentic, unrepeatable.

The Raven

Blue across half the surface, red straight through the face, a cloth that takes her sight — and she sits there as if the whole uproar were no concern of hers. The image smells of oil pastel, of plants in the room, of an hour when too much happened. The blouse open, the skin bare, a glass table in front with three glasses already empty. Here color rages, and precisely because she doesn’t rage with it, you can’t look away. Acrylic and oil pastel on photo paper, two signatures, one of a kind. You hang it because her calm is louder than the red above her.

The Creative Process

There is no fixed formula in the Modern Madonnas series. Each work grows from the interplay of material and intuition. The collages are not planned in advance — they develop in the process.

Traces of handwork, small irregularities, deliberate imperfections — the process stays visible here. The works live from the human touch: from visible interventions that show a person, not a machine, was at work. That imperfection is exactly what makes them an authentic example of contemporary collage art.

Every piece is created in close collaboration: the photographic foundation is established by Martin Wieland, while the collage, overpainting and material combinations are developed and executed by his art director Dietmar Halbauer. This creative exchange makes each work a layered, unique original.

Collector Value & One-of-a-Kind Character

The Modern Madonnas series is aimed at art collectors who value authenticity. Every work is a genuine original — created by hand, signed, and available in this form only once. The deliberate choice of materials, the visible working process and the combination of different techniques guarantee the unmistakable character of each piece.

The included certificate of authenticity keeps this value documented and verifiable long-term.

Framing

The right frame doesn’t just protect your artwork — it amplifies it. With our custom frames, every piece takes on a new presence and becomes a genuine focal point, whether in a living room, office or gallery.

We use exclusively high-quality acrylic glass with 99% UV protection, keeping colors from fading long-term. The glass is anti-reflective, lightweight and shatterproof — the same standard used in leading museums.

Collector’s Tip

Many of the photographic originals used in the Modern Madonnas are also available as large-format fine art prints in the Collector’s Edition – limited, signed, collected internationally.
