Similar to the plein-air series «Buildings» I’m interested here in the interrelationship of human-made structures and the surrounding environment. But instead of massive functional buildings the painted buildings are smaller constructions commonly found on playgrounds. Often, such structures have a surreal appeal that I try to manifest in the pictorial implementation with swift and bold brushstrokes. On first sight, the function of the constructions isn’t clearly palpable and they might look like a utopic village in the jungle.
