Whispering in the sunlight – Contemporary collage art

The light touches the skin like an old memory. The lines, the colors, the textures – everything seems gentle and yet it cries out for an answer. The chest under the veil of light – there is no hiding place here, no escape. This contemporary collage art throws you back to what remains when the theater of everyday life ends. Lacquer pencil and gold paint the contrast between the warmth of the light and the coldness of the moment. An image that forces you to look while giving you the feeling of looking at yourself.

Modern Madonnas – contemporary collage art that cannot be categorized

The Modern Madonnas series breaks with expectations. There are no smooth, decorative pictures for sterile rooms here. This is contemporary collage art that looks, questions and tears up appearances. Paint, sand, varnish – layer by layer, art is created that remains because it does not adapt.

Every work is different. Sometimes collage, sometimes overpainting, sometimes installation. The techniques change, the approaches remain unpredictable – because art lives when it constantly reinvents itself. It is a creative playing field in which materials and methods are constantly recombined, regardless of rules or expectations.

Technology & materials

Each work in the Modern Madonnas series is a unique original – analog, genuine, tangible. There is no retouching here, it is layered, torn, applied. Layer by layer, different materials are applied, reworked, destroyed and rebuilt until the surface not only develops depth, but also its very own dynamic.

The result: contemporary collage art with character – lively, authentic, inimitable.

  • Technique: ink, acrylic, original photography, collage on cardboard
  • Carrier material: cardboard
  • Format: 30 x 40 cm
  • Authenticity: Hand-signed, certified, unique

The creative process

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

Traces of manual work, small irregularities, intentional imperfections – the process remains visible here. The works live from the human touch: from visible interventions that show that it was not a machine but a person who worked on them. It is precisely this imperfection that makes them an authentic example of contemporary collage art.

Each picture is created in close collaboration: the photographic basis is created by Martin Wieland, while the collage, overpainting and material combinations are developed and implemented by his art director Dietmar Halbauer. This creative exchange makes each work a multi-layered, unique original.
