Art Project "Ravenna Edition" – Hofgut Sternen

This project began with a simple idea:

to create art that grows out of a place — not just to decorate it.

When I first walked through the Ravenna Haus at Hofgut Sternen, I felt a quiet intensity.

The light, the old walls, the surrounding forest, the proximity to the Ravenna Gorge — everything carried a certain depth and stillness.

It wasn’t a space that asked for loud statements, but for presence, for listening.

Over time, I created a series of 20 original works especially for this location.

They are not depictions of specific scenes, but emotional translations of what this place evokes in me:

a sense of grounding, calm, and a deep connection to nature.

The Black Forest has always shaped my way of seeing the world.

In this project, I wanted to bring that inner landscape into the Ravenna Haus —

to let visitors experience the atmosphere of the surroundings in a more intuitive, emotional way.

For me, this collaboration is about dialogue:

between art and architecture, between inner and outer worlds, between the visitor and the space itself.

The works are meant to be encountered quietly, almost accidentally —

as moments of pause within the rhythm of a stay at the Hofgut Sternen.

I see this project not as an exhibition in the classical sense,

but as an invitation:

to slow down, to notice, and to reconnect — with the place, the moment, and perhaps with something within yourself.
