A yellow moon at the upper right above dark blue and green verticals; below, pale water in which small figures are discernible.

Hoffnungsquelle

2020

“Hoffnungsquelle” tells of light that endures even in dark surroundings. The moon and its reflection create a vertical connection that works like a spring rising from another plane. Small human figures appear vulnerable but not lost. They stand within a larger cycle of darkness, water and light. Hope here is no loud promise but a quiet force. It arises exactly where orientation at first seems barely possible.
