I spent a good part of my life in big cities where shitty living conditions are the norm if you are not rich.

With this Street Art project I create handcrafted stories that play on the global housing market.
Damaged walls with a missing brick seemed like a niche no-one has claimed. So I am using these holes in walls as building space for my own little flats.
Can you find ‘em all?
With flats all over London there is a wide variety of brickflats to be hunted …
The Bookworm has a self-illuminated light so he can read 24/7.
Cupboard Yoga … well.
Showerhead uses an old drain pipe for his hygienic routine.
Poorple guys miserable flat is a lot of peoples delight.
Barcelona.
Brickflats expanded to my all-time favourite city in the summer of 2021.
Wanderlust is on a mountain top that was a shanty town. Hopefully looking over all of Barcelona brings the little guy some joy from his little cupboard.
Entangled Lovers is next to the nudist beach in Barcelona. I went a bit more abstract with the figurine design ... I think it's my personal favourite design so far.
Salzburg.
In the autumn of 2021 I got to travel to my hometown Salzburg for the first time since COVID. Of course I had to bring some brickflats there.
The Traveler is in Salzburgs train station, ready to go on an adventure.
The Reader is on the steps of a called the "mountain of writers". Former home of Peter Handke and also mentioned a lot in books by Thomas Bernhard.
