The artwork "Am Lagerfeuer" by Mark Hellbusch, created in 2024, is an impressive wall piece measuring 100 x 110 cm. The piece gains its three-dimensional and lively appearance through actual depressions formed by the addition of wooden slats and plant saucers.

In the upper row, circles in shades of blue, green, and brown dominate, reminiscent of the colors of the sky and nature. The middle row is characterized by warm hues like red, orange, and yellow, representing the warmth and flickering of a campfire.

Below, large color fields spread out, where bold, partially smudged colors interact, creating a sense of movement and warmth. The title "Am Lagerfeuer" perfectly complements the intense, glowing colors and organic forms that evoke the roaring flames and inviting atmosphere of an evening fire.

The skillful blending of colors and the way they overlap and merge create a vibrant yet harmonious composition. The work invites the viewer to explore the complexity and depth of the shades and to be captivated by the emotional warmth of the piece. The three-dimensional effect of the plant saucers enhances the plastic presence of the painting and adds an extra spatial dimension.

"Am Lagerfeuer" conveys a strong emotional resonance. The warm, intense colors evoke the sense of security and community one feels while sitting by a fire.

Colors flowing and merging symbolize the constant change and movement of life. The campfire itself often stands for renewal and reflection, a place where stories are told, and memories are shared. Hellbusch manages to unite these multifaceted meanings in a single, impressive work.

The physical structure of the painting, with its genuine depressions and three-dimensional arrangement, invites the viewer to experience it not only visually but also imaginatively. A dialogue between the viewer and the artwork emerges, an invitation to delve into the depths of the colors and forms and to find their own meaning within it.

Presentation

Born in Bad Segeberg, my life's journey has taken me to vibrant locales such as Brazil, Spain, and the USA. I pursued my passion for art at the prestigious Falmouth School of Art and Design in England and complemented this with a diploma in Geography from Marburg University.

Since 1997, I have had the privilege of showcasing my work in numerous solo and group exhibitions in cultural hubs like Antwerp, Berlin, Frankfurt, Wiesbaden, and Mainz. My artistic journey also involves organizing workshops focused on experimental and expressive painting, sharing my techniques and vision with fellow art enthusiasts.

From 2007 to 2014, I operated a production gallery in Mainz, fostering a creative community. Since 2014, I have been based at my studio in Langendellschlag 62, Wiesbaden, where my creative ideas come to life. In 2021, I expanded my artistic reach by opening "ARTLET," a dedicated art outlet in the heart of the city, making my work more accessible to a broader audience.

My diverse experiences and passion for art continue to drive my creativity, allowing me to inspire and be inspired in return.
