STEFAN HEIZINGER

Artistic Initiator  and Designer of Experiential Spaces and Processes

HEARTMAN – The Subject of Self-Becoming

From personal engagement and development through photographic reference images and their auto-projective transformations.

Via painterly-spatial situations of emotional plasticity and immersive staging.

To finding rather than losing oneself.
