U

"IT ALL STARTED WITH THE DECISION TO CONSTRUCT A MIRROR."

"U", THE NEW SERIES BY GERMAN CONTEMPORARY ARTIST PATRICK DOMO, SHOWS DAILY SITUATIONS CHARGED WITH CURRENT THEMES OF THE 21ST CENTURY LIKE CLIMATE CHANGE, FEMINISM AND SOCIAL MEDIA. THE ARTIST COMBINES THIS OUTSIDE PERSPECTIVE ON SOCIETY WITH A MORE PERSONAL ONE, INCLUDING HIS MEMORIES, HOPES AND DESIRES. DEPICTING PEOPLE, PLACES AND TIMES.

THE SERIES "U" IS VISUALLY INSPIRED BY MUSIC AND VISUAL ARTISTS LIKE LUCIAN FREUD, GERHARD RICHTER AND ANDY DENZLER. OFTEN QUOTING CLASSICAL PAINTINGS BY VERMEER OR CASPAR DAVID FRIEDRICH, DOMO USES A FASCINATING AND REVOLUTIONARY ABSTRACT OIL PAINTING TECHNIQUE WHICH BRINGS TOGETHER PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE.
