Hulo-Hoop is to see figuration under the bubbles of oilpaint. Life on this planet is blooming in another colourfullnes. Just as the idea to fly to the moonbubble was born in the 50s of the last century, also came the invention of hula-hoop from Hawaii. Children tried out the gravitation of a circle around their bodies.

We show a painting of Buzz Aldrin-Apollo 11 (100 x 70 cm) who stands on the moon and finds planets there, the same ones he could see on earth. We zoom again back on the earth through satellite and see a farm with a horse, very blurred due to the atmosphere and double exposured like a painting of Gerhard Richter (Barnstable of Mars, 80 x 60 cm).

In calmness the old gods are browsing over the surface of new Europe, a moon of Jupiter and looking along the green sky (Pleasure Trip on Europe, 150 x 75 cm). The figurative paintings are divided into different colour spaces as in Ti-Miami (130 x 98 cm) between sun and darkness or in hula-hoop circles of the painting Coloured Report (80 x 60 cm). A Mongolian is calling through black lines an unknown person, while a bird is picking something out of it. In São Paolo, Istanbul and Brooklyn are people who are thinking about the reflection of the sun on water, like we reflect our lives in paintings.
