Preparation Week
This is my last week in Basel and while I’m working off my todo lists and constantly making new lists, I’m trying to enjoy the time here again to the fullest.

Summer Solstice
My Basel summer is in full swing and this week we reached the longest day of the year. Like every peak, this one is also based on the realization that things are now going downhill again.

The most perfect summer week
I can’t complain about my life and every morning I look forward to the day ahead. But there are weeks that are a little more special than others and days that I look forward to especially. Last week was once again such a moment with ArtBasel taking place in the city.

Back to reality number one
The trip from New York to Basel is always the most difficult of the travel constellations that occur in my life between New York and Basel.

Everyday’s life and New Jersey
The last two weeks have kind of blended together seamlessly. I found the days of the first week somehow too trivial to fill a blog post with. So there’s no overview of week 6. Although I did snap a few pictures that were taken while jogging in Central Park.

Hopperesque days
Living in New York sometimes puts a little pressure on me. Though every time I come, I am spending several weeks here, it subconsciously feels like a limited period of time to me.

Moving on
After the break due to a cold, I finally had a week in which things got going and in which there was also time for some New York city life. I’ve been thinking about connections and am making preparations for the first paintings I am going to realize in New York.

Time out
This week is quickly told. I caught a cold and spent it mostly home and with a tissue in front of my face. So all came to a rest for a while.

Arriving
The first full week in New York was all about arriving. Overcoming jet lag, getting into the rhythm and taking in the new studio. In addition a little bit of sightseeing.

Transition week
The first week of the new year was marked by transitions. On the one hand by the temporal transition from 2022 to 2023, but mainly by my personal change of location from Basel to New York.
