TRANSPARENT
“TRANSPARENT” fuses order with openness. Offset, cube-like fragments in layered blues overlap and drift, part surface, part air. Edges are sharp, almost architectural, yet nothing is sealed; gaps act like windows, letting the eye wander through the structure. The work feels like a building in the act of becoming — geometry without skin. Transparency here is not disappearance, but clarity: the form shows how it holds itself together. “TRANSPARENT” is an artwork from the “Blue in a Square” art series with over 300 works. Each piece is available exclusively online and can be purchased only through the art store.
On permeability.
Bruce Lee once said: “Be like water.” In my own words, that means being permeable. With the artwork “Transparent”, I explore this idea. Transparency and permeability are closely related. The interesting thing about this attitude is that it is like water. It carves its path. Or, as people say: water always finds a way. I have also learned that life is not just black and white. Life consists of infinitely many shades of grey, from white to black. Of course, tolerance also means being intolerant at certain points – especially towards the intolerant. But being transparent means being more or less permeable. Conversely, that means being able to absorb more or less. You learn this behaviour the way you learn a language or an instrument. You are never finished, never done. You practise it for a lifetime.
The privilege of youth means seeing many things in a simple way. Dividing them only into black and white. But over time you feel that, in many situations, you don’t get any further with that attitude. You meet with rejection. Which becomes increasingly irritating, even painful. And then, bit by bit, you develop this transparency. And it’s like building windows into walls. Pulling up the shutters. Cleaning the glass. A form of permeability, like a semipermeable membrane. Of course, you don’t have to be open to everything. But over the years, you should gain emotional permeability in order to reduce agitation, excitement, and even outrage – and to prevent them from arising in the first place.
The artwork “Transparent” is part of an art series comprising 300 works that deals with positive memory culture and puts it at the centre. Since I cannot expect everyone to have the same associations with the same motifs, I have created a wide variety, so that everyone can put together their own series – to create the most positive possible encounter with art for themselves.
Keynography Art
Keynography Art is a new digital art form founded by Christof Hintze, with no AI being used or applied, created in Apple Keynote—originally a presentation program. Through the precise interplay of complex stencils, masks, lines, and many layers and shadows, shapes, depth, and spatial effects are built up—like a collage, but entirely digital. The result feels like a graphic relief: clean, detailed, and surprisingly three-dimensional, even though it is made from simple Keynote elements. More about it in my bio…
