Schamane_2 (Studien_2) (2011) Drawing by Oleg Breininger

Oleg Breininger is a contemporary German painter. His constant observations revolve around natural areas that bear the marks of human activity. The artist perceives the interventions resulting from human use and their imprints on natural spaces as integral components of nature itself. The boundary between intervention and the inherent natural state becomes blurred.

The limited possibilities inherent in these human interventions also form a significant aspect of his exploration. By visualizing the temporal effects of specific processes, accentuating their effectiveness or exaggeration, highlighting regeneration processes, and examining the maximum impact of interventions, he draws attention to the notion that capacities have finite endurance. This highlights nature's capacity to endure and reflects a positive understanding of its resilience.

Additionally, he delves into the role of humans within this process of utilization. The influence exerted and the consequences borne by humans appear to shape their position, but in reality, they create a dichotomy within their own existence. The artist questions the role of humans in the utilization of nature, inviting contemplation and critical examination.
