Detailed description
Picture "coffee to go" (2011)
The work shows a coffee cup lying in the desert near a settlement, where it has obviously been thrown away. The painting was inspired by the artist's regular visits to a coffee shop in Palm Springs and his thoughts about where these cups often end up. However, the idea is not implemented as a warning, but the coffee cup is placed in the desert landscape like a modern sculpture and elevated to the status of a work of art itself. Even thought-provoking or problematic issues are presented aesthetically in this artistic realization and can thus be communicated.
