art

Wieland Payer uses graphic techniques, mainly pastel, to design landscapes. He finds his subjects on the go, while traveling and hiking. In his representation of nature, he orients himself, among others, to Carl Blechen and Caspar David Friedrich , artists of the German Romantic period. But Payer's works are also criss-crossed by geometric shapes, which on the one hand are reminiscent of the achievements of modern technology such as telephone lines, but which are also integrated into the composition as abstract surfaces.
