The bizarre ones:
Norman Hildebrandt’s hand-drawn motifs show figures and creatures in grotesque situations and places.
These beings often have an intellectual and emotional entanglement that they know how to outshine through absurd ways of acting and appearing.
Human-animal metamorphoses as well as sexual transformations form a focal point in the draftsman’s work.
The abyss resonates in many drawings, even if it often only catches the eye at second glance.
The motifs are created on paper spontaneously and without preliminary studies.
Fine liners, permanent markers and colored pencils are used, as well as drawing ink with a brush and pen.
The enigmatic will fluoresce, the petting spine iridizes.
