Six years ago when I created this work, I lived in a one room apartment here in Berlin and worked long ass hours in a post office warehouse, sorting boxes. Apart from a couch the only other furniture I had was a desk and my computer. No trinkets. No artworks. Sparse. I lived well within my means and got by with working one job to the next.
Some may say that they would feel like giving up, but I never did, or ever could. I couldn't wait to come home after working my ass off all day to create this artwork. It's all I thought about to get through the shift. And weirdly there was a shift, as it's one of the artworks that started to get me a lot of attention as an Artist when I shared it online. So naturally, it means quite a lot to me.
In Spiegel Im Spiegel (german for mirror in the mirror) there are many facets of self. A reflection of you, in your soul mate, your soul mate in a reflection of you... An eternal mirror. Yet perhaps more than anything its a reflection of what's inside of me, my soul, and that need and want to create whats there.
