In “3 × schwarzer Kater”, a symbol commonly associated with superstition and Halloween appears within the pictorial space as a subtle sign rather than a literal motif. Its traditional meaning as an omen of misfortune is playfully contrasted by the painting’s lively palette and spontaneous marks.

Hidden lettering, gestures and fragments of lines reveal themselves gradually through closer observation, creating an image space in which elements appear, disappear and re-emerge.

Influenced by graffiti aesthetics, dynamic lines and splashes of paint interact with a reduced palette, forming almost script-like structures. The work balances humour, symbolism and visual curiosity, inviting viewers to explore the image beyond its immediate surface.
