The „Ocean Arts“ collection represents my most emotional works, born from a deep connection to the ocean world. Through countless dives and magical encounters with sharks, whales, turtles, mantas, and other wondrous marine creatures, this collection emerged to capture the beauty and fragility of the seas. Every underwater experience, every gentle glide through the vastness of the ocean, has inspired me to bring this unique world to life through my art.
This collection is a tribute to all the organizations and individuals who tirelessly work to protect and preserve the oceans. Their dedication not only safeguards countless species‘ habitats but also preserves the magic and diversity the sea offers us all.
A portion of the proceeds from the „Ocean Arts“ collection is donated to select organizations actively working to protect the oceans. With each artwork, not only is the fascination for the underwater world shared, but a meaningful contribution is made to preserve it for future generations.
Ocean ARTS
A work about freedom, courage, and the power to protect what cannot be replaced.
It was one of those moments you never forget. Miles offshore, in the open waters near Mauritius, I encountered a whale family. Underwater. Eye to eye. I watched as a calf nursed from its mother — a moment so peaceful, so intimate, so full of grace that it etched itself into my soul.
That encounter gave birth to this piece:
“Guardian of Freedom” – a visual tribute to the beauty and fragility of ocean life.
Inspired by the life’s work of Paul Watson, whose unwavering courage and commitment to whale and ocean conservation has shaped generations.
The whale in this artwork breaks through the darkness, surrounded by golden and fiery energy – a symbol of power, freedom, and the unstoppable rhythm of life.
The vibrant colors represent not only the passion and urgency with which Paul Watson and his allies fight for our oceans – but also a warning. A reflection of rising sea temperatures, quietly but relentlessly transforming marine ecosystems.
This is not just an environmental issue – it is a crisis of connection, a call to remember where we came from.
This artwork is my tribute to Paul Watson – and to those who refuse to look away.

Ocean ARTS
A work about fragility, courage – and the quiet wonder of a new beginning.
It was in the Maldives, at the house reef of Sun Island.
I was diving, alone, breathing slowly just beneath the surface.
And then she appeared — my first deep encounter with a green sea turtle. No spectacle. No sound. Just gentle movement. A slow, graceful glide.
A being that felt older than time. And yet so alive, so dignified. That moment stayed with me. And it became the heart of Birth of Ocean Life.
In this piece, a tiny sea turtle hatches from a glowing, turquoise nest. Its shell shimmers with delicate golden lines — like the very first rays of morning light. It is small. Yet so full of strength. Every glance, every movement speaks of wonder, of hope, of the quiet courage it takes to enter the unknown.
But this artwork is more than a captured moment. It’s a message. Because every year, thousands of sea turtles fight for survival — threatened by plastic waste, warming seas, and disappearing habitats.
What I wanted to hold onto was not just the birth of a creature — but the reminder of how precious, how fragile, and how deeply worth protecting this life truly is.
Birth of Ocean Life is my love letter to the ocean. And to those who call it home. I hope this image touches you — and reminds you that each of us can make a difference. Before all we love becomes just a memory.
📍 This exact artwork will be exhibited from July 1–31, 2025 at NICOLETA GALLERY in Berlin, Germany.
In every first breath lies the chance to shape a better future.
Ocean ARTS
A work about beauty, loss – and the question of how much we’re still able to feel before there’s nothing left.
I have admired sharks my entire life. Even as a child, I was mesmerized by them – in books, in films, and eventually, in real life: underwater. They were never monsters to me. They were perfection. Every movement precise. No sound. No fear. Just presence.
And today, whenever I dive with them, it still feels like time stops.As if I’m meeting a being that understands balance more deeply than we ever will.
But these silent masters of the sea – they are disappearing.
Not quietly. Not naturally. But through our greed. For a few fins. For soup. For power. Millions. Every single year.
I created Machines of the Seas because I couldn’t let go of this one thought: What if one day we only see sharks in museums, on screens, or as artificial replicas? Flawlessly engineered. But lifeless.
A robot shark. A technical masterpiece – and at the same time, a monument to our failure. In this piece, golden gears, metallic lines, and deep blue-gold currents fuse into a creature that looks like a shark, but no longer is one. It still holds the form – but not the spirit.
And that’s exactly what I wanted to show: What happens if we keep destroying blindly? What remains if we only imitate what we’ve already erased?
Sharks are not just important – they are essential. Without them, the fragile balance of the oceans collapses. And if the sea dies, our foundation dies with it.
No sharks – no balance. No ocean – no humanity.
Machines of the Seas is my visual echo of that truth.
It’s not just an artwork. It is pain. A warning. And maybe – a last attempt to make you feel how precious what we are losing truly is.
📍 This piece will be exhibited from July 1–31, 2025 at CASA DEL ARTE in Palma de Mallorca.
I hope we remember in time that no algorithm and no machine will ever replace the heartbeat of a living ocean. Because some things can’t be rebuilt. Only protected.
Ocean ARTS
A work about lightness, freedom – and the quiet elegance of a moment that stays forever.
I remember the day as if it were yesterday. It was in the Maldives, during my final Open Water Diver exam. I was focused, calm but alert – somewhere between excitement and stillness – when I slowly turned around. Something dark was approaching.
It came closer. Bigger. More majestic with every second.
And in that moment, everything inside me became completely still. And then it passed by me – a manta ray. Weightless. Gentle. Enormous. As if the ocean itself had decided to take shape for just one breath in time. A magical moment that etched itself deeply into my heart.
Dance of Ocean is my attempt to capture that exact magic.
The manta in this piece glides through a radiant sea of colors and golden accents. Its wings move like a dance – not hurried, not forced, but in perfect harmony with the current.
It becomes one with the ocean, part of something far greater.
A symbol of freedom, of harmony – and of the playful soul of the sea. Because mantas aren’t just gentle and elegant – they are also curious and playful. They dance with the flow, spin in circles, and remind us that lightness is not the absence of depth –
but the presence of trust. Trust in life. In the moment. In the ocean itself.
To me, the manta ray is a messenger. A being that shows us how beautiful lightness can be. How much emotion can live in silence. And how life below the surface pulses with color, movement, and fragile wonder.
With this piece, I want to draw attention to a world full of motion and brilliance – and to how important it is to protect that world. Because if we lose what lives down there, we lose a kind of magic no language could ever describe.
Dance of Ocean is my reverence for the sea. And a quiet wish that generations to come may still witness this dance.
📍 This piece will be exhibited from August 1–31, 2025 at Art Bar Grenada Gallery, Grenada, Caribbean
When a manta glides through the water, it reminds us how free we could be – if only we chose to dance with nature, not against it.
Ocean ARTS
A work about silence, light – and the delicate mystery of a creature that feels almost not of this world.
I was just a child when I saw my first jellyfish. It was on the German Baltic Sea, on a summer day full of salt on my skin and sand between my toes. I still remember that shimmering creature in the water – translucent, floating, strange. I was fascinated. And at the same time, full of awe. Something so beautiful – and yet touched by danger. That feeling never left me.
Today, many years and dives later, I feel it again – every time I encounter a jellyfish underwater. How it drifts through the blue, slowly, almost like dancing, as if following a melody only the sea can hear.
The Ocean’s Lanterns is my attempt to make that feeling visible.
The jellyfish in this piece float like golden crowns through the depths, their glowing tentacles trailing streams of light. Surrounded by wave-like shapes and luminous accents,
they radiate timeless tranquility – and a silent majesty that asks for neither words nor attention.
To me, jellyfish embody the ocean’s mystical soul. They are simple – and at the same time, inexplicably complex. Delicate, transparent, nearly untouchable – yet they carry a presence that reminds us: Even the quiet, the unseen, has its place. And its purpose.
The Ocean’s Lanterns doesn’t just celebrate the beauty of these beings – it is an invitation to see the ocean through new eyes. With more respect. More wonder.
And the understanding that every creature beneath the surface carries a story – even if it never speaks.
📍 This artwork is part of my Ocean Arts Collection and will be exhibited internationally very soon.
Maybe jellyfish don’t just glow to survive – but to remind us that even in the darkness of the deep, light can be born.
Ocean ARTS
A work about greatness in its quietest form – and the invisible weight of connection beneath the surface.
It was in 2010, in the Maldives. I was underwater, at the beginning of my diving journey, when a shadow emerged from the blue – a whale shark. Slow, majestic, effortlessly gliding. Despite its massive size, it didn’t intimidate, but calmed me to the core.
That first encounter marked me deeply, and since then I’ve met several of these gentle giants. Every time feels like a gift – not loud or dramatic, but grounding and humbling. These moments taught me how much power there is in stillness, and how peace often moves slow.
The Gentle Giant is my attempt to make that feeling visible. The whale shark moves through a deep green sea, a symbol of the ocean’s depth, mystery, and silent wisdom. A glowing golden veil surrounds it – not for decoration, but as a trace of its quiet presence and its essential role in maintaining balance in marine ecosystems. It leaves no noise, yet everything it touches changes.
But this gentle being is under threat – from pollution, noise, habitat destruction, and from a world that too often fails to recognize the value of what is calm, soft, and slow.
And so, The Gentle Giant becomes more than a tribute – it is a quiet invitation to pause, to protect, and to remember what truly matters.
📍 This artwork is part of my Ocean Arts Collection and will be exhibited internationally very soon.
Maybe the whale shark moves so slowly, so we finally begin to understand how much life exists in silence.
Ocean ARTS
A work about grace within greatness – and the quiet awe of a moment that stays forever.
It was on Oʻahu, one afternoon on the island’s western shore. I sat barefoot in the sand, eyes resting on the horizon, when I saw them: whales. Again and again, their powerful breaths broke the ocean’s surface, as if the sea was quietly speaking. I could hardly believe it – seeing them there, wild, alive, immense.
A year later, I found myself in the water with a whole whale family. They moved past me, calm and unhurried, fully at home in their world. I remember the moment one of them glided by – no sound, just water, light, breath. It felt like time had paused. That encounter changed something in me. And it’s never let me go.
Golden Fins is my attempt to capture that deep stillness. The whale in this piece moves through a flowing composition of deep blue, emerald, and gold. Not for decoration – but as an expression of the energy that surrounds it. The golden elements tell of connection – between being, ocean, and movement. They reflect something sacred: the silence from which all life begins.
To me, whales are not just majestic creatures. They are memory. Power. Story. And a call to consciousness. Because even now, in 2025, whales are still being hunted – brutally, senselessly, under the guise of tradition or profit. It breaks my heart that we, as humans, fail to protect what is so clearly worth saving.
With this piece, I want to remind us. Of what we stand to lose if we keep turning away. And of what we might preserve – if we choose to listen.
📍 This piece will be exhibited from August 20–24, 2025 at SWISSARTEXPO in Zürich
Maybe whales breathe so deeply, so we might learn what it truly means to be connected to life.
Ocean ARTS
A work about closeness without words – and the quiet magic that arises when we simply let go.
I remember a calm morning in a small bay on the island of Mauritius. The light was soft, the sea clear, and we had booked an excursion with a guide who didn’t just know dolphins – he seemed to understand them. He said something I’ll never forget: „If you stop fighting the water and move with it, they will come to you.“ And he was right.
Suddenly, a whole school of dolphins appeared. Graceful, playful, completely free. They came so close I could have reached out to touch them – but I didn’t. I stayed still in the water, present but unintrusive, and they swam past me, curious and calm, as if inviting me into their world. In that moment, there were no thoughts, no expectations – just connection. Pure trust.
Moment of Trust is my attempt to make that feeling visible. The dolphin in this piece seems to be made of flowing layers – a form shaped by movement itself. The texture surrounding it resembles a living ocean pattern, both porous and protective. It’s not about illustration, but emotion: the sensation of encountering a being that owes us nothing – yet still chooses to come close.
To me, dolphins are far more than animals. They are intelligent, intuitive, deeply social beings – playful and aware, with a presence that mirrors something pure within ourselves. And yet, every year, thousands of dolphins are hunted, herded into coves, slaughtered as if they were objects. But they are not. They are a gift to the sea, to the ecosystem – and to us.
This piece is a reminder – not of cruelty, but of possibility. Of what can happen when we meet life with awareness. Trust isn’t earned through dominance, but through respect. And every being that approaches us carries the hope that one day, we’ll be worthy of it.
📍 This artwork is part of my Ocean Arts Collection and will be exhibited internationally very soon.
Maybe dolphins offer us their trust, because deep down, they still believe we might return it.
Ocean ARTS
A work about transformation, intelligence – and the quiet theatre of deep connection.
It happened on Sun Island, in the house reef of the Maldives. I was diving between arches of coral when my eyes caught something I didn’t recognize at first. Two octopuses – so perfectly adapted to their surroundings that they were nearly invisible. But as I got closer, I witnessed something that has stayed with me ever since.
They were engaged in what felt like a tender ritual – a kind of courtship dance made of movement, touch, retreat, and reunion. Their skin changed color and texture constantly, communicating not with sound but through a language of the body, the breath, the moment. It felt ancient. Like a secret code written long before we arrived. I didn’t move. I just watched – in awe and silence.
The Hidden Embrace is my way of honoring that moment. The octopus in this piece seems carved from darkness itself, marked with golden patterns that pulse like living veins. Its arms stretch outward, flowing and curling through space – a gesture both open and guarded. It is not tame, and not threatening. It simply is. Entirely present. Entirely mysterious.
Few creatures embody such a combination of intelligence, adaptability, and quiet dignity. Octopuses solve problems, remember, play – and live in bodies that see, feel, and think without needing words. And yet they are under threat: from overfishing, pollution, noise – and from a worldview that only protects what it understands.
With this work, I want to invite reflection. On how close the unknown can be when we choose to slow down. Some wonders do not shout. Some simply move – in silence, in shadows, in trust.
📍 This artwork is part of my Ocean Arts Collection and will be exhibited internationally very soon.
Maybe octopuses don’t hide because they fear us – but because we haven’t yet learned how to truly see them.
Ocean ARTS
A work about primal force, elegance – and the quiet intelligence of a being that senses deeper than we understand.
I have immense respect for sharks.
Not out of fear – but because of their presence. Because of the silence they carry. And because of their unmatched ability to survive in a world we barely comprehend. The great white shark is a masterpiece of evolution. It possesses seven senses – including the ability to detect electrical fields, allowing it to locate hidden prey even in complete darkness. It sees without color, but its vision is perfectly tuned to the depths. It smells, hears, feels – not just through skin, but through space.
Seven Senses of Ocean is my tribute to this remarkable creature.
The flowing shapes in this piece represent its movement – smooth, powerful, precise. The golden accents are not decoration, but a symbol of its role within the system of the sea: It is no monster. It is balance. It is order. It is an ancient force that holds life in the ocean together. And yet, it is slaughtered by the millions each year – brutally, systematically, for greed.
For shark fin soup, their fins are cut off while they are still alive. Then they are thrown back into the sea, where they die slowly. Not because they are dangerous. But because we are.
This artwork is a call.
For respect for life.
For reverence toward intelligence that looks different than ours. And for the responsibility to protect not just what is cute and photogenic – but what is wild, ancient, and essential.
📍 This artwork is part of my Ocean Arts Collection and will be exhibited internationally very soon.
Maybe the ocean gave the shark seven senses,
because it knew humans would leave it none.
Ocean ARTS
A work about destruction through excess – and the quiet grief of a world slowly falling silent.
I remember sitting in silence after watching Seaspiracy.
Not just because of the images – but because of the truth behind them. A truth that doesn’t scream, but quietly eats away at our choices. Since that moment, I’ve stopped seeing fish as food. I see them now as a warning.
What Remains shows what is left when we take more than the ocean can give.
The flowing lines in this piece speak of life that once was – of a body that moved through water, part of a delicate, balanced ecosystem. But what we see here is no longer a fish. It is a memory. A fragment. An outline of absence.
The golden accents may appear precious at first glance – but they also symbolize the greed that consumes everything. The belief that we can take endlessly without consequence. But we are already facing the cost. Species are vanishing. Coral reefs are dying. And fish are no longer symbols of health, but carriers of microplastics, heavy metals, and human neglect.
What Remains is not an accusation – it is a mirror.
A reflection of our habits, our indifference, our hunger for more.
And a reminder that we are part of this system.
That we don’t need to save something separate from us –
but ourselves, by finally recognizing what connects us.
📍 This artwork is part of my Ocean Arts Collection and will be exhibited internationally very soon.
Maybe fish no longer taste the same, because the ocean has begun to fight back.
Ocean ARTS
A work about connection, fragility – and the quiet breath of an ecosystem that sustains all life.
This artwork shows more than a whale. It shows a home.
A living network of coral that doesn’t just rest on its body, but seems woven into it – as if the whale itself is breathing the reef. As if it isn’t separate from its habitat, but moving in harmony with its rhythm.
Breath of Coral is my attempt to make this deep symbiosis visible.
Every coral structure on the whale’s body represents the fragile web of marine life – all that is connected, even if it often remains unseen by human eyes. The golden accents feel precious, almost sacred, yet they also remind us of the value – and vulnerability – of this underwater world.
Coral reefs are disappearing. Quietly, but rapidly. Through climate change, pollution, and careless actions. And with them vanish countless species, microorganisms, sanctuaries – and ultimately the foundation of what sustains us, too.
This work is not a warning, but a plea. A plea to listen to the quiet voices. Of coral. Of whales. And of a future that drifts farther away with every reef we lose.
📍 This artwork is part of my Ocean Arts Collection and will be exhibited internationally very soon.
Maybe the reef speaks through the whale, because we’ve long forgotten how to feel its breath.
