I like #wordkunst work too! loving how you place them together in this frame. I bought some of his originals and and have them along other art. This collages are so ingenious and some if them just make me smile like "freut sich auf ihre besuch" 🤭 (more in alt text)
a very interesting collage work of #wordkunst feauturing a series of elements in a black background. The artist plays with the concept of visual poetry by creating ryth repeating versions of some objects: some fluf of cotton for the etereal, blackout words for the cryptic (or censure? ) red scruch pater for the accentuation and stress and brown pre printed paper from newspapers or books. The work is intriguing, visually interesting and unframed. a picture of a collage on a wooden frame with a generous white paspartout. It represents a cliff landscape with a sadden female face floating over it in a very surrealistic flavor. That face has skin inperfections and looks sad or bothered. Some justaposed text from cutouts reads below the image; Insel Rügen freut sich auf ihre besuch. tranlation: Isle of Rugen is happy you are visiting. This collage makes me laugh every time i see it and thats a hreat reason for having it, on the top of being a genius composition Another one of my favourites, here we see a collage from #wordkunst framed in white. Depicting an upside down bird that looks to the left side over the miniature of a mansion, between big trees. The bird is hanging from the limits of the image. On the left side a justaposition of cutouts reads: crystal now UND toward. A great composed collage on visionaires and rara avis. That was my first adquisition from #wordlunst and bot the last one An original collage from #wordkust framed in light wood, placed on white backgroung with the typical arrangement of white space of the first printed bybles from guttenberg (🧐 sorry im kind of nerdy) The image is very intriguing and complicate to decode. The composition creates an sinuous snake like movement in the dentral axis very pleasant. On the top of the image a drapped stripped yellow white fabric, from which a descomposed hand appears in two pieces, on finger in the first piece, some empty space with snowy mountains in the back, and for fingers in the lower part. Ends with the first part of a male face showcasing hair and brows and nothing more

History does not repeat, yet it displays a form of repetition compulsion.

As humans, our basic currency is our lifespan. In the digital world, this is seen in the exchange of our attention, our presence before the screen, not for money but information. We pay with the amount of time we spend in front of our computers.

Friederike Mayröcker (tr. wordkunst) / Tobias Pils (*1971)
Tobias Raphael Pils. "Pencil, Ink on Paper, 180 x 110 cm, 1995" or a Raphael-Necessity [for description = next image] text by Friederike Mayröcker there she is now in front of the stacked chairs, and I can see her tugging the threads, syruplike, doubling her dark figure (rear view) wearing 1 covering upon her narrow skull, a very black covering with two little Chinese pigtails like antennae, Dalí moustache, straining, stretching her long arms or garment sleeves to the floor and sanding, and in the look of her eyes I had no idea where to *hell with it* all, namely, those camels and Alhambras hiding themselves in 1 flood of light, and first had to look up the meanings of the word, after the fact, and maybe this figure here on the paper is saying something I can't understand, but the echo of the words has been calling back from the walls of my room for a long time, I mean, it was 1 MINDTHICKET, I think the uncapped felt-tip had gotten caught up in the underblanket, FIZZLED-OUT, so that everything was full of black lines and envelopes and spidery cantilevers : striped, spotted, scorched, a spit of color, ink and charcoal, studded they were with dark my blanket and sheet, unadorned by clumps of soot; foot binding

In Ovid, the act of storytelling transforms sheer misery into new forms of vitality.

A sheaf of grain. The light is dim. The surrounding dark a dark brown.

Like the cool. Like mornings beneath the sky yet unstitched by roars—
