EN: The point of view in every situation is based on a certain selective perception of the observer. It is sometimes a melting pot of reality and fiction. This point of view has also diverse influences such as the background of the situation, the current mental state, the projections one has, which come from the past. In most cases, we all observe at the same given situation a different element of it. The element in the middle is called a Moebius, in this case, an impossible mathematical shape. I chose this element because it shows the complexity of even simple situations involving more participants. All of the participants can't have the exact same experience.
DE: Der Standpunkt in jeder Situation basiert auf einer bestimmten selektiven Wahrnehmung des Betrachters. Es besteht manchmal eine Verschmelzung zwischen Realität und Fiktion. Diese Sichtweise hat auch verschiedene Einflüsse wie den Hintergrund der Situation, den aktuellen geistigen Zustand, die Projektionen, aus der Vergangenheit, die man mitbringt. In den meisten Fällen beobachten alle Betrachter in derselben gegebenen Situation ein anderes Element davon. Das Element in der Mitte des Bildes heißt Möbius, in diesem Fall eine unmögliche mathematische Form. Ich habe dieses Element gewählt, weil es die Komplexität von sogar einfachen Situationen zeigt. Alle Teilnehmer haben eine unterschiedliche Erfahrung.

Pentament
is a word I created for this painting. It represents the unity of the five elements: water, air, earth, fire, and ether.
I was searching for a word/symbol close to the trinity, but representing 5 elements and having a flexible meaning. Since I could not find a symbol free of stigma and strange history I made a word for it.

The WWF Austria is committed to a strong European water protection around the Water conference, which was this week in Vienna, Astria. Together with the Vienna based artist Bella Volen, a bodypainting performance took place in the inner courtyard of the Museums Quartier on Thursday, September 20., at 9 o'clock. The focus was to draw attention to the poor state of Europe's waters as well as the need for better protection. Rivers and their diverse creatures are the subject of the painting and present two possibilities: real protection of the water and an enchanting biodiversity or a weakening of the Water Framework Directive and its fatal consequences for water, flora, fauna and humans. Around noon, about 100 committed activists took part in a dance performance hosted by the WWF youth organization Generation Earth. The idea was an appeal to the participants of the conference to campaign for more ecological water protection.

Der WWF Österreich engagiert sich rund um die Wasserkonferenz für einen starken europäischen Gewässerschutz. Gemeinsam mit der Wiener Künstlerin Bella Volen wurde am Donnerstag, 20.September, um 9:00 Uhr eine Bodypainting-Performance im Innenhof des Museumsquartiers auf den schlechten Zustand von Europas Gewässern sowie auf die Notwendigkeit eines besseren Schutzes aufmerksam. Flüsse und ihre vielfältigen Lebewesen sind das Thema der Bemalung. Die Bemalungen zeigen zwei Möglichkeiten auf: echten Gewässerschutz und eine bezaubernde Artenvielfalt oder aber eine Abschwächung der Wasserrahmen-Richtlinie und deren fatale Folgen für Wasser, Flora, Fauna und Menschen. Zu Mittag appellierten rund 100 engagierte Aktivistinnen und Aktivisten in einer Tanzperformance der WWF-Jugendorganisation Generation Earth an die Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmer der Konferenz, sich für mehr ökologischen Gewässerschutz stark zu machen.

Acrylic painting on canvas

The powerful, deep wish and search for the right path, direction, goal, calling in life is the only door, which can close the programmed bug in our human software, the inner black hole. That black hole is our own, personal devil, which consumes your power. There are no substances, wild events, money, clothes, food, or external objects, which can fill that gap. And how could something purely external be the answer to something from within, when the most important and valuable things such as the essence of us humans, our intellect, talent, love, passion, friendship, faith, trust etc. are not of a material mater.
The inner black hole is not there to disturb you but to teach you and guide you to find the light.

LAUNCHING EVENT OF QIDDIYA
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
April 2018
I was very honored to be one week in the desert in Saudi Arabia, and be a part of an amazing international artists crew for the launching event of a huge new cultural amusement and sport complex called Qiddiya. I was a part of the Birgit Mörtl & WB-Production team.
"King Salman officially launched on Saturday, the 28. of April Qiddiya, the entertainment, sports and cultural destination that will be the first of its kind in the Kingdom.
Spanning an area of 334 square kilometers, the new destination is just 40 kilometers west of the Saudi capital, Riyadh.
The ground-breaking ceremony was conducted in the presence of Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defense and Chairman of the Public Investment Fund, as well as several princes and ministers and an audience of 300 dignitaries from around the world.
King Salman placed the last baton of the Qiddiya logo, triggering a spectacular firework show that lit up the sky outside the capital.

Ich bin sehr geehrt, eine Woche in der Wüste von Saudi-Arabien verbracht zu haben als Teil von einem großartigen internationalen Künstlercrew für die Startveranstaltung eines riesigen neuen kulturellen Vergnügungs- und Sportkomplexes namens Qiddiya. Ich war Teil des Teams von Birgit Mörtl & WB-Production.
"König Salman hat am Samstag, dem 28. April offiziell Qiddiya ins Leben gerufen, das Unterhaltungs-, Sport- und Kulturzentrum, das das erste seiner Art im Königreich sein wird.
Es liegt auf einer Fläche von 334 Quadratkilometern, nur 40 Kilometer westlich der saudischen Hauptstadt Riad.
Der Veranstaltung erfolgte in Anwesenheit von Kronprinz Muhammad Bin Salman, stellvertretender Ministerpräsident, Verteidigungsminister und Vorsitzender des öffentlichen Investitionsfonds, sowie mehreren Prinzen und Ministern und einem Auditorium von 300 Würdenträgern aus der ganzen Welt.
König Salman stellte den letzten Stab des Qiddiya-Logos auf und löste eine spektakuläre Feuerwerksshow aus, die den Himmel außerhalb der Hauptstadt erhellte.

I have created this music video for the Austrian/Spanish band Flamensky and the song Revivir. Their music is beautiful and inspirational. For me it is like a parallel journey on one hand to your inner self, on another hand through the different elements and nature. Their sound is romantic and very synesthetic.
Here you can find their album:

AWAKENING
May the forest be with you.
Sometimes I ask myself what the trees have seen, how much they know...
The forest is always a perfect location to escape from technology, the battles of the modern world, just to enjoy stillness, and the windblown woods. I wish you all the keep a part of the forest in you.

THE PATH OF DAO
Fine art body painting at an exhibition opening of The Lake-Blue Heaven, International Spring Art Salon
Bodypainting, painting & video: Bella Volen
Qingdao, China
May 2017
I participated with this installation and two other canvas paintings.
The invited artists came from all around the world.
The painting is a cityscape with a few famous places in Qingdao, a city in eastern Shandong Province on the east coast of China.
Since Qingdao was the birthplace of Taoism/Daoism/ the center of the painting is a Tao temple. The word Dao means way/path, therefore the central part is a path through the temple, symbolically a way through many gates and stages of life, personal, emotional and spiritual growth as human nature, beings, cultures, and countries, but also the path of the inner world of our own body as a temple of the human spirit, power, mind, faith and duality. All these elements of human nature cannot be easily grasped, explained or understood, their existence is similar to beauty or art-it is only in the eyes of the beholder.

ADDICTION
ESCAPE FROM YOURSELF
A visual poem by Bella Volen
The poem shows more or less a surreal vision of the world of an addicted person.
The text afterwards is inspirational for those, who feel lost.
This poem is a result of the pain I went trough of not being able to help people I care about with addiction.
I hope there are others ready for a change.

A new inspirational video- a visual poem about the dark moments in life.
There are only a few steps between the darkness and the light.
I have never been depressed, but there are millions of people around the world, who are struggling with constant sadness and living with major depression.
This serious illness is the cause for many humans to put their life on hold, stop believing in their dreams, giving up new chances, looking through a black mirror and often the beginning of an alcohol, drugs or medication problems, addiction, sometimes it leads to a bitter end. I believe this life is a gift and not a battle and wish more people to search the happiness and love from within.
