Stefan Kreide was born in Germany in 1973. In his works, pigment dust and astonishingly meticulous, tiny structures form surfaces that resemble tissue sections. Overlaps and the impression of blurred boundaries created by drawing techniques turn viewing into a search for clues. Small figures emerge, mainly through the interpretive fervor of the viewer’s brain, and migrate into more or less defined areas of other small forms. Basic patterns of history and stories begin to emerge. — Lisa Spalt for Galerie Maerz, Linz
