Everything Is Only What It Is
Edition, 2022
In his works, Christian August creates abstract-expressive color worlds, which move in the play of intuitively and in a fast ductus set gray tones and pastel color gradients.
Almost like a white noise, the diffuse noise of colors lies underneath and next to the monochrome surfaces, which sometimes act like a resting antipole to the complex background noise.
Just as his works are created in rapid physical motion, they also remain in motion for the viewer: his worlds of color glow and bubble, diffusely, organically, and alternately loud and quiet, rough and smooth on the surface of the picture.
