Dani Jakob
Artist Dani Jakob's work evokes a multitude of styles and cultural references including German Romanticism, esotericism, Hip-Hop, Heavy Metal and Far-Eastern as well as Western genres of cultural history. The ironic, forthright mixture of signs and symbols fragments the viewer's perspective into a myriad of meaningful possibilities, further emphasized by the unusual choice of material.
