The elaborate process of high-pigment printing creates a unique texture on the paper with an extraordinary depth of color and velvety contours.
Nimbus's works are conceptual in nature; the artist remains anonymous in the background and allows his work to speak for itself, without any reference to his person.
The digital abstraction of halos, which have a photographic origin, changes and creates new colors and new levels, but never alters the existing image contours or changes the "framework." The halos thus created multiply in an evolutionary manner, building on each other and deriving from each other.
Nimbuses are only created with limited intent, but their composition follows a coherent order and is aesthetically motivated. The fundamental decision about when they are "finished" is made spontaneously, at the right moment, and is irrevocable.
Some of their colors appear otherworldly, as if they were not actually part of our color spectrum. Nimbuses are their own aesthetic intelligence. Most nimbuses are created as unique pieces—they are printed only once, "born," a clear statement against the theoretically possible infinite reproduction of themselves through the preservation and use of their digital DNA. The artist's works are in important private collections in Germany and abroad.
