Latest Utopian Civilizations
Thitz
painting
03 September until 13 Oktober 2018
In recent months Thitz has been able to make some ideas, that he has been pursuing for a long time, visible and tangible for everyone in the form of new bag pictures. The series "Utopian Civilizations" continues to evolve. Since this year, the inhabitants of these positive future plans no longer only inhabit green forests and meadows, also mountains and diverse landscapes. They are conquering previously unknown habitats. On the other hand, the proliferating utopia also affects existing cities such as Paris and New York.
In addition, Thitz Urban Bag Art pictures became even stronger and more succinct. The bag as an urban cultural element becomes physical and fills the entire space of the picture, both in the painting ground and as a multi-layered "cultural medium". "For the Thitzworld, the bag is therefore the motive born, symbolizing and realizing globalization in one." (Dr Stephan Mann, Museum Goch, 2016).

When describing the physical structure of his own work, Thitz simple says “Bags and acrylic on canvas”. But his work is more than this, illustrative, tangible and immediate, he presents a steaming with vitality world. Thitz hypothesis is if you really want to paint a large city, you must try to paint your perceived experience in itself, with all the bustling noises, the urban dust, the fleeting odours… In one second a city can communicate an infinite amount of information about itself, and it is within this moment where my inner perception of the true self of the city is made up.
