Cyril Keller - What?

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.

The artist Parscha Mirghawameddin, my teacher and mentor, had a particularly formative influence on me. I learned to paint from him. His sense of color, his eye for composition, and his artistic experience were hugely important to my development. As his student, I was able to benefit from a depth of knowledge and passion that continues to inspire 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. 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 textures that emerge, and the surprising forms that give each painting its own character. In this process, the craft I learned comes together with intuition and a joy in experimentation.

I want my paintings to enliven spaces, evoke emotions, and bring lasting pleasure to those who view them. Each work leaves room for personal reflection and discovery. This openness is precisely what makes abstract painting so special to me: a painting can mean something different to everyone and reveal new facets over time.

With every 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.
