about the artist

Lars Wohlnick, born in Bremen in 1964, is a designer, typographer and artist.

As a highly decorated creative he deals with the clearest possible communication of complex content. As an artist, however, he is particularly interested in the ambiguity of messages: Quotes taken out of context, mutilated words that have various meanings and only transform through the interpretation of the viewer. In doing so, he uses typography, fragments from literature and music, and often alienates texts to give the viewer the opportunity for individual interpretation. His tools are various stamps and stencils, some of which he cut himself, with which he can give space to chance and mistakes, in order to transform letters into lively, unique pieces with intuition and spontaneity. Lars Wohlnick lives and works in Berlin.
