Statt „Fuck KI“ kann man auch einfach „Fucki“ sagen.

A large mound of pale golden sand dominates the foreground, its eroded face revealing layered texture. To the right, a stack of rough-cut limestone or concrete blocks rises against a hazy overcast sky. In the foreground, tire tracks are pressed into the flat sandy ground. The overall palette is muted warm beige and grey, evoking an industrial or quarry setting.

Minimalist poster with two overlapping pentagon shapes—one large warm brown in front, one black behind—on a light textured background. The word “To” appears top left, “fu” top right split across two lines, forming “Tofu.” Bottom left reads “Finest Tofu since 1981.” Bottom right shows the Soya Kang logo.

Something I made for a tofu manufacturer, including the logo at the bottom right.

1989
Haus 1 der ehemaligen Zentrale des Ministeriums für Staatssicherheit (MfS, Stasi), Berlin

Interior view of a mid-century room with warm wooden built-in cabinets and an open glass-paneled door. The floor features light herringbone parquet, partially covered by a gray patterned rug. Through the doorway, a second room with turquoise walls, a wooden wardrobe, and a vintage wall-mounted radio is visible.

Mid-century kitchen interior with turquoise wall tiles and white upper cabinets. A white oven with round control knobs is set between pale cabinet fronts, partially concealed by floral-patterned curtains. Matching sheer and patterned curtains hang by a window on the left. Brown floor tiles and a dark countertop complete the scene.

So bury me in wood
And I will splinter

Bury me in stone
And I will quake

Bury me in water
And I will geyser

Bury me in fire
And I'm gonna phoenix

Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you've got to be kind.“
—Kurt Vonnegut

It cannot be said often enough.

Menschlichkeit wird Bildsprache. AI ist überall. Gerade deshalb wird 2026 wieder wertvoll, was nach Mensch aussieht: Handschrift, Material, Haltung – Menschlichkeit wird Bildsprache.

Close-up of a weathered yellow wall with a single window. The glass is dirty and fogged, reflecting pale sky and warm light; rust stains and screws frame the window, with a few bare twigs blurred in the foreground.

Colorful abstract drawing of a human face composed of grid patterns and expressive lines. The eyes are red and green, the face is structured with pink and blue cross-hatching, and the features appear stylized, geometric, and slightly asymmetric.

Even though Mariola Brillowska, alias Die Frau in Blau (The woman in blue), did not draw this picture as a portrait of me, it does resemble me.

Soil
Romi Kröner, 2026

Two images, one operation. A charcoal field becomes a square of soil. What is abstract in drawing is executed in space. No metaphor—just material, framing, and displacement.

Pencil drawing on white paper. Two small, vertical seed-like shapes float near the top. Below them sits a dense, rounded cluster made of many short, repeated pencil strokes, resembling compressed material or rough concrete texture.

Concrete Seeds
Romi Kröner, 2026

A seed as a unit of growth under pressure. Nature translated into structure: aggregate, repetition, permanence. Growth beginning in resistance.
