BIO
The artists APHE (Oliver Hollatz) and NOAH (Noah Kauertz) met during their art studies in Bonn. Their shared interest in art in public spaces, as well as their passion for painting, led to their first collaboration in the form of a Mural painting in 2019. In the same year, four further murals were created, which significantly shaped the artists' collaboration in terms of color, style and subject. Their dialogic painting moves fluidly between representation and abstraction and is strongly influenced by an atmospheric color aesthetic.
