About my current series.....Therapy and the arts 

I am working on a series of paintings about my experience with mental health. Not only as a licensed therapist, but as an artist and a consumer of MHS. Each painting explores the visual image of emotions associated with a current mental health diagnoses and are meant to stimulate an emotional reaction from the viewer.


As artists we are barometers of society, we study the history of art history and the use of different mediums.
As a therapist I am witness to the pain and suffering of others on a frequent basis. I study the human mind, behaviors and different ways to improve the existence of my clients.

HEGO GOEVERT - PINTURA - ALEMANHA


Nascido e crescido na Renânia do Norte-Vestfália, na Alemanha. Quando eu tive que parar de tocar bateria há alguns anos, eu estava realmente sentindo falta de algo. Senti uma espécie de "lacuna criativa", preenchida por uma paixão da juventude: a pintura. Eu costumo pintar enquanto ouço música rhythm'n blues e sinto que pintura e bateria têm muito em comum. Eu percebo trabalhos onde a energia da cor e da textura são essenciais. Nas minhas pinturas abstratas, tento visualizar emoções, sentimentos e estados de ânimo, expressos em blues. Eu também tento expressar a transitoriedade, a decadência da vida como pré-condição necessária para a gênese de algo novo. Algumas das minhas pinturas mostram um motivo parecido com o ZEN. Além de preto e branco, gosto de usar cores quentes e terrosas (acrílicos, pigmentos, cores de efeito ferrugem) - misturadas com pó de mármore, areia ou pasta de modelagem em diferentes camadas - pintadas, suavizadas em padrões de aparência áspera e muitas vezes arcaicos. Às vezes eu também uso mull, pack-twine, material de embalagem, placas de cobre e zinco, denim, pc-sucata e flocos de metal. Todos os meus trabalhos terminaram com um verniz brilhante para protegê-los da sujeira ou dos raios UV. Todas as pinturas estão prontas para serem penduradas. Você só precisa de um prego para pendurá-los. Fui jurado publicamente no top 10 doze vezes na Galeria "Saatchi Showdown", que recebe mais de 40 milhões de visitas por dia. Minhas pinturas foram vendidas para colecionadores particulares em todo o mundo, principalmente para colecionadores dos Estados Unidos da América e Reino Unido (também nos Emirados Árabes Unidos, Austrália, Nova Zelândia, África do Sul, Espanha, Suécia, Suíça, Luxemburgo e Alemanha).
