My journey as an artist is rooted in a challenging upbringing in a post-war German family, which ultimately led to a profound Kundalini awakening later in life. This awakening, coupled with a necessary disruption of my career plans to heal childhood trauma, has shaped my resilient and visionary perspective. I strive to bridge the tangible and intangible, the personal and universal, through my evolving practice. Since 2000, I have explored digital art through photo editing, pushing boundaries with non-conformist approaches, and since 2016, I have delved into digital creation rooted in being—transforming formless consciousness into new imaginative forms without the use of AI. I called the pieces Kniff Art or because it was literally nothing to begin with I also called my discovery Ex Nihilo.In 2023, I integrated AI-generated art through surrealist text automatism also using my own works, creating a synthesis of diverse experiences, visionary states, and cutting-edge technology. My work emphasizes intuition and sensory experience, blending photography, painting, and other mediums with my own digital techniques to craft a rich tapestry that celebrates both the beauty of form and the formless in an ever-evolving artistic landscape.

"The creative adult is the child who has survived," a famous quote often attributed to Ursula K. Le Guin, signifies that artists are individuals who maintained their innate childlike wonder, imagination, and playfulness despite the rigid, structured, and often harsh nature of adulthood.
