Wall Street in its purest form – modern collage art

A cop with low-hanging arguments and a goal that everyone understands. There are no excuses here, no fine words, just raw, blunt reality. Money makes the world go round – and here you can see where it comes from. If you want to survive in the world of finance, you need balls, and not just in the figurative sense. This is pure capitalism in a nutshell. No consideration, no hesitation, just forward pressure. Modern collage art that doesn’t ask, but hits. Precise, provocative and with a force that is hard to ignore – just like the market, which decides every day who rises high and who falls to the street.

Split Screen – Modern collage art between reality and illusion

The Split Screen series is not classic landscape photography. It is not about picturesque postcard motifs or pleasing natural idylls. Instead, the result is modern collage art that shifts perspectives and irritates the eye. Layer by layer, textures, colors and shapes combine to create images that hover between reality and illusion – sometimes rough, sometimes soft, always surprising.

The creative process

There is no fixed scheme in the Split Screen series. Each work is created in a dialog between material, motif and intuition. The compositions are not determined in advance – they develop during the creative process, layer by layer.

Traces of manual work, slight irregularities, deliberately placed breaks – the process remains tangible here. Modern collage art that does not hide its origins, but makes it clear that real handiwork is involved. The imperfection becomes a stylistic device and gives the pictures their special, authentic effect.

Each work is the result of a creative collaboration: the photographic basis comes from Martin Wieland, while collages, overpaintings and material combinations are developed and implemented by his art director Dietmar Halbauer. This joint work results in modern collage art that breaks up familiar views and tells a new story.

This picture is already perfectly framed

The frame? It fits like a glove. Black and silver, with scratches that look like someone tried to scrape away the damn surface – and gave up because the thing has too much character. No high gloss, no fancy crap. Just a frame that doesn’t slow the picture down, but goes at the wall with it. Bad boy style. Tough, honest, uncompromising.
