ON SCREEN is an international video art festival dedicated to the exploration of the digital medium.

Founded in 2021, ON SCREEN is a curatorial streaming festival that serves as an international platform for artists who push the boundaries of digital narrative, glitch aesthetics, post digital perception, and screen based experimentation. The festival understands the monitor not merely as a display surface, but as a curatorial space — a hybrid canvas with its own physical, temporal, and digital properties. Through its unique format of curated Seasons, ON SCREEN explores how moving images behave, transform, and persist within the expanded field of digital culture. It brings together artists whose works challenge linearity, question the stability of the image, and open new pathways for audiovisual creation in the post digital era.

Each Season,ON SCREEN curates a selection of artists whose works are presented through our Broadcast Layout — a clean, screen‑native interface designed specifically for ON SCREEN. This format highlights the digital materiality of each piece and creates a focused viewing experience accessible to audiences worldwide.

The five Seasons of ON SCREEN 2026 are:

• Season 1 — Algorithmic Mirrors and Epistemic Frictions

• Season 2 — Permeable Geographies & Decentered Networks

• Season 3 — Computational Ecologies & Post-Hyperreal Landscapes

• Season 4 — Post-Linear Temporalities & Poetic Re-Origins

• Season 5 — Somatic Glitches & Digital Obsolescences

"Kunst findet Stadt -"Art Finds the City" 2

"Kunst findet Stadt - Thema Demokratie" /"Art Finds the City" – 
Theme: Democracy

23/05 - September 15/09/2026: Works in public spaces

11/07 - September 15/09/2026: Works in shop windows

(opening was 11 July 2026)

Center of Rheinbach (NRW), Germany

With "Kunst findet Stadt," the city of Rheinbach is initiating a multi-month cultural project that deliberately blurs the boundaries between public space, everyday life, and contemporary art. True to the guiding principle "Art is where you are," the city itself becomes an exhibition space: streets and squares become stages, shop windows curated presentation areas—in short, "the city becomes a gallery."The center will be transformed into an open, freely accessible art landscape. A total of 29 artistic positions, including twelve installations in public spaces and 17 works as part of a shop window exhibition, will enter into direct dialogue with the urban space and society. The exhibition is continu-ously accompanied by tours, lectures and concerts.

About the work

As mentioned in the previously post , I had the opportunity to create two works for this event.

The first work is a graphic work entitled " Eine andere Sichtweise - A Different Perspective" (No15) which can be seen at the optician's shop Optik Ansichtweise, Hauptstraße 55., Rheinbach.

With "Eine andere Sichtweise - A Different Perspective," I depart from the focus of my previous artistic work and develops a graphic visual language that employs a metaphorical narrative. Birds become stand-ins for people with diverse personalities, experiences, and worldviews. Together, they sit on a rope that provides support and simultaneously symbolizes the foundation of a democratic society. Democracy thrives on diversity and differing opinions. It requires the willingness to form majorities without losing sight of minorities and to respect other perspectives. Tolerance, empathy, and mutual respect create the stability that enables peaceful coexistence.


The second work is the spatial installation "Die Pflanze der Demokratie hegen - Nurturing the Plant of Democracy," (No21) which is exhibited in the shop window of the optician's shop Optik Schulz, Hauptstraße 12, Rheinbach.

The installation uses simple, everyday objects to explore the fundamental principles of a democratic society. Two chairs facing each other, a table, and a potted plant form a minimalist arrangement that emphasizes dialogue and cooperation. The plant symbolizes democracy. Like any living plant, it needs attention, care, and suitable conditions to grow and thrive. Democracy is not a static state, but an ongoing process that requires commitment and respon- sibility. The two chairs are equal: they are the same distance from the table and at the same height. They symbolize people with different opinions, political convictions, and perspectives. Democracy thrives on the acceptance of these differences and the ability to find common solutions through respectful exchange.The white table alludes to the search for consensus and peaceful coexistence. The work deliberately avoids explicit labels or explanations. Instead, the installation invites viewers to interpret the symbolism themselves and reflect on the conditions necessary for democracy to endure.

Both works inviting the viewers to continually question their own viewpoint and consider things from a different perspective. It serves as a reminder that everyone is part of a community—unique in their own perspective and yet connected by the shared responsibility of maintaining balance.

Ode aan de Linge art festival - "9054" or "A Ritual of..".

Ode aan de Linge art festival - "9054" or "A Ritual of..".

Here is a selection of images of the installation titled "9054" or "A Ritual of…", which I set up on the weekend of July 4th and 5th July 2026 as part of the "Ode aan de Linge" art festival, themed "Water"  in the Heemtuin in Geldermalsen, Netherlands.

Material: Mirrors, ceramics bowls, pebbles, water

The installation is relatively small for a piece of land art. Its intention, however, is to draw attention to the nature of our environment and its details. The installation allows for various interpretations. It can be seen as a reflection and interpretation of the surrounding nature: the pond, the leaves on the water, the reflection of the sky and the trees in the water… At the same time, the installation reflects elements and perspectives of Far Eastern philosophies based on my extended stay in the Far East. Water is the basis of life and ultimately stronger than stone. Water possesses many different qualities. It is the basis of life, but it can also be devastatingly destructive. It is a metaphor for movement, power, and floating, but also for tranquility, contemplation, silence, purity, and cleanliness. The installation focuses on these five key concepts.

The image shows a selection of photos of the land art installation. The installation is located in front of a pool on a lawn. It consists of 16 mirrors arranged in a square. On the mirrors are 14 bowls filled with small white and black pebbles and water. Two mirrors at opposite corners have no bowls; instead, beige and black pebbles rest on the mirrors. The reason for this was to prevent the installation from appearing too uniform and to create a harmonious contrast and tension. Furthermore, these two corner points mark an invisible parallel line to the edge of the pond.

EISA Photography Maestro Contest 2026

EISA Photography Maestro Contest 2026. Under the theme "Travel," photographers could participate in the "Single Image" and "Series" categories.

My small travel photo series became runner-up in the Dutch section of the competition. The series was published in connection with the contest, along with a short article in the Dutch photography magazine FOCUS issue #3/2026.

“This series approaches the theme of travel from a different perspective and a different context. The photos show travel in relation to all everyday situations and daily life. Instead of beautiful landscapes, monuments, busy airports or train stations, or people in a folkloric setting, which are normally associated with travel and travel photography, here you see trams, rickshaws with their passengers and drivers, buses, river ferries, or the nighttime view from above of the endless stream of lights from

cars and buses in an urban context. Everything is in motion in one way or another. The photos were taken in Kolkata (India), Narail and Dhaka (Bangladesh), and Taipei (Taiwan) during working stays.

Generally, for this type of photo, I do not plan fixed series and I do not focus on one specific subject or theme in advance.” •

My interpretations about bicycles are presented in this group exhibition


ArtRad / Tour de Oderland

26 June – 25 July, 2026
Opening: 26 June, 2026, 6:00 p.m.

MAGISTRALE KUNSTHALLE
Karl-Marx-Strasse. 192, 15230 Frankfurt (Oder), Germany
Opening Hours:
Thursday-Friday 2:00 p.m.-7:00 p.m.,
Saturday: 12:00 p.m.-4:00 p.m.



About the exhibition

Magistrale Kunsthalle presents a cross-border exhibition project that focuses on the connection between cycling culture and contemporary art.
The exhibition brings together artistic positions that explore the bicycle as an object, symbol, and medium. On display are sculptures, installations, conceptual works, and mobile artworks that address issues of mobility, sustainability, public space, and social change.


About the photo works

The concept behind the three images is based on depicting bicycles from unusual or unsettling perspectives.These bicycles symbolize malfunctions and the temporary inability to continue riding. For a brief moment, however, they become a kind of installation art in public space. They show that a bicycle is not just a means of transport, but can suddenly transform into an art object that can be discovered in the urban environment.
