FIRST STEPS
1981 – 1984
My first attempts at art were more focused on sculptures and 3D design.
From 1981 to 1984 I learned from many different artists. Among others with Christine Henn, Walter Müller Feyen, Hermann Stamm and Christoph Mancke. After a phase in which I mostly painted free works, graphic design became the main focus of my work.
ART
1984 – 1991
During this time I trained and worked almost exclusively as a designer. My first commissioned work came from the music industry. Cover design for completely different styles of music from punk to folk music was all there.
Illustration
1991 – 2000
Working as a designer made illustrations more and more exciting for me.
Typographie
2000 – 2020
As a designer, dealing with typography is incredibly important. Already in the 80s I got to know the laws of typography from Rolf Schulze and Alfred Luko.
since 2020
I’ve been sailing around the world since 2020. This eliminates the big studio work for me. Since then I have mainly worked digitally. My digital works are available as NFT on https://opensea.io/KarinBinz
