The paintings are a personal story that reflect a world without morals and belief. They are a copy of a man’s feeling that has as a motor an external freedom, liberating himself from all burdens of a social being’s existence. Somebody who has chosen to take the trail to a second paradise, the attempt to abolish the restrictions and handicaps of a hard life until he disposes even the last existing institution – his own god. Without this god nobody remains who would expel him from this second paradise-so he stays in the Planete Interdite – a place that must not exist. Axel’s work is about the creation of a personal sensation. The very same feeling that we will have facing the future once we have gotten rid of purity, faithfulness, integrity and virtue. Catch the vase before it can hit the ground. Text by Christoph Kolk
Shoji and I left the exhibition with the intention to go to Loving Hut for dinner, thank God we don’t eat meat.It is impossible not to have a strong reaction while looking at this work. Thoughts of Roman Polanski and David Lynch went swirling through my mind.
Later,
