Michael Lassel
In my work as a trompe-l’œil artist, I strive to create more than just a visual illusion. I aim to offer the viewer a deeper experience characterised by mystery, uncertainty, and ambiguity.
By blurring the boundaries between reality and illusion, I invite the viewer to engage with the art in a way that goes beyond the obvious. Each glance can reveal new details and perspectives, keeping the dialogue between the artwork and the viewer alive. In a world often defined by fixed truths and established norms, I want to promote a form of openness and dialogue through my work that allows for diverse interpretations.
I believe that when art is authentic, it exists like a living being in the world, capable of taking on new meanings depending on how it is perceived. This continuous unfolding of meaning is at the core of my work.
