About Tim Pollheide
aka /PLA-TI-N/
Born in a small town in West-Germany in 1982 Tim joined the mural scene as a teenager. He started with a text-based style featuring intricate line work, complex layering, and a wide range of color. Painting with a spray can, he soon added all kinds of brushes and other materials to paint.
Recent works are created by the use of quality acrylic paint with the use of big brushes, palette knifes and self-made large squeegees. Layered carefully over a period of weeks. And so creating an strong emotional or expressive abstract in his unique style.
Employing his fast, assured, and gestural hand to shed light on the arguable darkness lurking which surrounds us in our daily lifes.
His recent works concentrate on the dialogue between different perspectives and how the observer interpret different points of view. Center of this dialogue is the question what kind of meaning we give circumstances and situations from our subjective point of view.
