An Artistic Journey

Non, known in the creative world as #zeitkunstreich since 2022, began this transformative journey after a profound initiation into the mysteries of the Holy Grail by an Austrian lightworker. Born in 1969 in Munich, Non was shaped by the contrasting influences of Swedish and German working-class parents, growing up amidst the rigid structures of Bavarian small-town life—a place where the restless spirits of the past lingered and danced.

From an early age, Non sought solace and expression on the stage, where music and lyrics became a powerful outlet. As a saxophonist in a big band and the lead singer of a rock ‘n’ roll group, the thrill of performing filled Non’s heart with an undeniable passion. Yet, feeling the pull of convention, Non pursued studies in computer science under the guidance of renowned professors, delving into the enigmatic worlds of cryptography, mathematics, and computing. However, the rigidity of academia could not quench Non’s creative spirit.

Post-graduation, the allure of words drew Non into the realms of poetry and writing. Disenchanted by the yet-to-be-established poetry slam scene in Bavaria, Non began performing poetry and comedy, carving out a niche on the stage once more. Life’s trials and tribulations led Non to explore new mediums, as a significant other introduced the artist to the tactile world of canvas and color. With no formal education but a deep-seated drive, Non embarked on a self-guided exploration of modern art, tirelessly researching and experimenting to forge a unique style—an ongoing, ever-evolving quest.

As a member of a respected art association, Non immersed in collaborations with art schools and fellow artists, confronting the harsh realities of the art world—where the lack of formal education and the prevalence of narrow-minded, egocentric instructors posed constant challenges. It was only the rebellious spirit of the punks and the pragmatic insights of capitalist mentors that provided a survival guide in this wild and uncharted territory. For Non, art transcends mere creation; it is a profound expression of life itself.

The sudden and devastating loss of Non’s daughter became a pivotal moment in this journey. Seeking solace and understanding, Non turned to Buddhism, psychology, systemic wisdom, kinesiology, and shamanism, each offering vital strategies for survival and continuous self-development.

Today, Non continues to push the boundaries of creativity, forever reshaping and redefining what it means to be an artist in a world that is both beautiful and brutal.

Vision

Explore, Inspire, Awaken.

Art is a profound experiment in communication, an intricate dance between impulse and impact. It originates deep within, like a seed of potential, patiently awaiting the right moment to emerge and flourish. Art transcends the boundaries of time and space, its lines and forms reflecting our personal journeys toward growth, understanding, and happiness as we navigate the complexities of contemporary life and the inevitability of death.

Art’s true power lies in its ability to reach both near and far, to build bridges between people and their hearts, and to invite them into a shared experience of the beauty and mystery of our world. In its diversity and depth, art offers a lens through which we can better understand and cope with the complexities of life.

Purpose

Our purpose is to create and curate art that not only captivates the senses but also stirs the soul. We aim to foster connections between individuals, cultures, and ideas, encouraging a deeper appreciation for the beauty and diversity that define our world. Through our art, we seek to inspire reflection, dialogue, and personal growth, offering a space where people can find both solace and inspiration in the midst of life’s challenges.

By engaging with our art, we hope to awaken a renewed sense of wonder and understanding, helping each person to see the world—and themselves—through a more compassionate and enlightened perspective.
