Statement
Clauser starts working with found natural materials:
wood, spices, colours, pushing them into new directions to create imaginary landscapes in any form.
Inspiration for the inner eye.
He has a strong interest for broken lines, a search for interfaces of macrocosm & microcosm, the twisting dance of Ying/Yang.
His artistic compass includes personal memories, experiences,
together with a vibrating awarness of environments and historical contexts.
Scanning of works allow a variety of digital formats & editions.
