As 2025 comes to an end, I feel so much gratitude for everything I was able to experience this year.
A solo exhibition during Bangkok Design Week, group exhibitions in Vienna, Linz, Vinschgau and Franzensfeste, running workshops and life drawing sessions, taking part in a drawing symposium, going to Frankfurt to receive first place for the KulturForscher prize, being part of the Winter Olympic Games with my flag design!
Thank you all for your support and love!
What a privilege it is to be able to live a life filled with art.
Flags of Art for the Winter Olympic Games
Flags of Art is a large-scale artistic statement created for the 2026 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games Milan-Cortina.
Fifteen flags by artists from South Tyrol, Veneto, and Lombardy fly at the entrance to the Antholz Valley - where the Olympic Biathlon competitions take place - from December 2025 till March 2026.
They explore themes of diversity, nature, community, respect, responsibility, and the power-as well as the challenges-of major sporting events.
I am so proud to have been selected to be part of this project with my flag ‚Formenfroh‘, which shows colourful, simple shapes on a bright, orange background. The shapes represent positive values such as friendship, respect, love and peace. The use of bold colours and basic shapes means the flag is understandable for people of all ages and cultures.
Thank you to the local newspaper Dolomiten Tagesblatt for the article.
Art Auction
This year I will be taking part in the art auction organized by the Südtiroler Künstlerbund.
I am offering my artwork ‚A flower grows where it is planted‘, which I showed at the InParadiso gallery at the Giardini della Biennale in Venice.

I am very proud that the art project ‘HEIMAT’ I develpoed the concept for and worked on at the primary school in Rodeneck received the first prize and 4.000€ from the KulturForscher group and Pricewaterhouse Coopers Foundation.
The prize-giving ceremony to which we were all invited, took place at the PwC building in Frankfurt, Germany.
Thank you to the local newspapers “Südtiroler Tageszeitung” and ”Dolomiten” for their coverage.
Artist meets musician on SchachMax
It was fun filming for the program SchachMax, shown on the local TV station Rai Sender Bozen.
Musician Max von Milland is given different challenges to complete and this time his task was to create a piece of art.
