Night Terrors

Description

With this painting, I want to take a stand – for more visibility, openness, and understanding in how we deal with mental health.
I, too, struggle with psychological burdens such as insomnia, anxiety, and panic attacks. This painting is an expression of my personal engagement with these topics.
It’s important to me that mental suffering is no longer a taboo. No one should have to feel ashamed of it.
Art serves not only as a means of expression, but also as a space for processing and healing.
The artwork “Night Terrors” – or in German “Nachtterror” – is meant to reflect exactly that.
This piece is more than just an image – it’s an invitation to look closer, to feel, and to start an open conversation.
