Felix Weinold Serendipity

"Serendipity" means an accidental observation out of which a new and surprising discovery grows. The phenomenon aptly describes Weinold's artistic method: most of his works are based not on a pictorial idea to be realized, but rather on a fortuitous finding in the course of a long working process. The starting points for his works are often old postcards that the artist uses as catalysts for his pictorial inventions. Their selection is based not so much on their subject or motif as on a certain structural appeal and formal openness that inspires Weinold to take them further; they are not image templates but rather work surfaces charged with possible motifs. Based on these postcards, the reproduced "objective" world undergoes a metamorphosis into an invented one.
