About the artwork

The artwork shows the Ihme Centre in Hanover - a monumental complex of concrete, steel and history. At first glance, the building appears heavy, almost forbidding, like a fortress of post-war modernism. But a closer look reveals delicate details: graffiti clinging to the façade like spontaneous thoughts, plants making their way through small niches and a cyclist barely perceptible in motion at the bottom of the picture. These details tell of life in the midst of apparent stagnation.

The inspiration for this work came during a long stay in Hanover. I was fascinated by the Ihme Centre - a place that is often described as a failed utopia. But for me, the ensemble had a different aura: it is not only a memorial to modernity, but also a projection surface for stories, dreams and hopes. My gaze wandered through the façades like a book that someone had started but never finished.

The atmosphere of the picture is cool and yet lively. There is a touch of melancholy in the air, but also a quiet dignity. I wanted to capture the moment when architecture is no longer just built space, but memory, rupture, promise.

This work stands for beauty in imperfection - for places that inspire reflection through their contradictions. It was created in a phase of searching - and found its peace precisely where others saw only concrete.
