Matthias Brandes
Painting works
Matthias Brandes' artistic language evokes the suspension of time, between contemplation and meditation. He explores the symbolic value of the home, a space where our individuality, our memories are protected and reserved. Flying houses are a magical universe where every object can fly and take on the most imaginative symbolism, distorting its perspective and meaning.
