The group of works, named "Gems on Ice", is based on textures of stones, minerals and rock formations, mixed with my drawings. After many hours of focused work on the elements, it turns out to a wonderful multi - layered graphic. Why stones? As a child I collected smaller peaces of different minerals, that looked interesting to me. During the time I didn't lost my fascination about the colours, crystals, fadings and ornaments which can be discovered on their surface. All that inspires me while painting, making ceramic objects and now on silk. Printed in best quality on satin silk in Europe, hand rolled by myself, this peaces of art can be both - framed artwork and accessoire.

In meinen Arbeiten geht es um Fragmente, Fragmente der Erinnerung, der Gegenwart und auch Fragmente der Zukunft. Meistens werden Teile des Ganzen dargestellt, wie bei dieser Keramik aus der Serie 'Zeitschaum'. Die Zerbrechlichkeit des Materials und die Farbigkeit der Glasur unterstreichen die Idee der Leichtigkeit - als wäre es Meerschaum.’ (Zitat: Igor Bleischwitz)

​My work deals with fragments; fragments of memories, of the present and also fragments of the future. I mostly depict fragments of a whole, such as in this ceramic from the series ‘Zeitschaum’ (‘Foam of Time’). The fragility of the material and the colourfulness of the glaze underscore the idea of lightness – as if it were sea froth.' (Quotation: Igor Bleischwitz).
