Kilu’s sumptuous works form an anthology of color, depth and light. Presenting a crossroads of aesthetics, the artist skillfully manipulates the camera lens in each of his works, capturing the light and color as a continuous form. Constructing an explosive narrative in each work, he combines elements of gestural Abstraction with drawing-like marks that translate a radiant experience of spirituality and energy. The result of Kilu’s creative process culminates with far more than a photo or wall sculpture; the works are objects of discovery that possess a timeless, magical quality. Reminiscent of a dream voyage to another place, his works are deeply personal, evoking his own subconsciousness, while revealing universal truths about the journey and celebration of life.

Using fluorescent light and movement to explore color, luminosity, and sculptural space, German artist Kilu captures the energy of the life—from the people he meets to the places he travels. Conceiving his visual art behind a camera lens, Kilu conveys inventive points of view that form a synthesis between abstract and figurative elements. Kilu creates a narrative with light, utilizing abstract compositions that reveal a life within the darkness of the studio. His photos deliver compelling patterns with graceful colors, methodical lines and arches, an aesthetic that can be closely identified with time spent in Zurich, Switzerland before his relocation to New York.

The result of Kilu’s dark room journey culminates with far more than a photograph; the works are objects of discovery that possess a timeless, magical quality. Reminiscent of a dream voyage to another place, his works are deeply personal, evoking his own subconsciousness, while revealing universal truths about the journey and celebration of life. With a bravery and intuit, Kilu’s current work travels down many new paths, exploring new techniques and aesthetics. Light and its power to transform, however, will remain a central focus throughout his creation.
