Cyril Keller - Freiraum

My name is Cyril Keller. I was born on September 12, 1978 in the Saarland.

My enthusiasm for art began in the early 1990s with graffiti. Even back then I was fascinated by colors, shapes, and the possibility of giving my ideas a unique expression. This passion still forms the foundation of my work today.

I was particularly shaped by my teacher and mentor, the artist Parscha Mirghawameddin. With him I learned to paint. His feel for color, his eye for composition, and his artistic experience were of great importance for my development. As his pupil, I could benefit from a knowledge and passion that accompany me to this day.

I am very grateful to Parscha for sharing his experiences with me and for supporting me on my artistic path. Learning from him was a special opportunity for me. On this basis I developed my own visual language and found my personal approach to painting.

Since 2015 I have been dedicating myself to abstract art with great enthusiasm. I am especially fascinated by the squeegee technique: the interplay of color layers, the resulting structures, and the surprising forms that give each painting its own character. In this process, trained craft meets intuition and joy of experimentation.

My paintings are meant to enliven rooms, evoke emotions, and bring long-lasting delight to their viewers. Each work leaves room for one's own thoughts and discoveries. Precisely this openness makes abstract painting so special to me: a painting can mean something different for every person and reveal new sides again and again over time.

With every canvas I further develop my work — carried by my artistic roots, the valuable impulses of my teacher, and the desire to create something of my own.

The canvas is unstretched and is carefully rolled in a shipping tube. An authenticity certificate is included in the delivery.
