Cyril Keller - Auf Der Insel

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

My passion for art began in the early 1990s with graffiti. Even then, I was fascinated by colors, shapes, and the opportunity to give my ideas a distinctive expression. This passion remains the foundation of my work to this day.

My teacher and mentor, the artist Parscha Mirghawameddin, had a particularly strong influence on me. I learned to paint from him. His feel for color, eye for composition, and artistic experience were hugely important to my development. As his student, I was able to benefit from a wealth of knowledge and passion that continues to guide me today.

I am very grateful to Parscha for sharing his experience with me and supporting me on my artistic journey. Learning from him was a special opportunity for me. Building on that foundation, I developed my own visual language and found my personal approach to painting.

Since 2015, I have devoted myself with great enthusiasm to abstract art. I am particularly fascinated by the squeegee technique: the interplay of layers of color, the structures that emerge, and the surprising shapes that give each painting its own character. In this process, the skills I learned come together with intuition and a joy in experimentation.

My paintings are intended to bring spaces to life, evoke emotions, and give their viewers lasting pleasure. Each work leaves room for personal thoughts and discoveries. This openness is precisely what makes abstract painting so special to me: A painting can mean something different to everyone and reveal new facets again and again over time.

With each canvas, I continue to develop my work—guided by my artistic roots, the valuable inspiration of my teacher, and the desire to create something of my own.
