WILLEHAD EILERS
WILLEHAD EILERS (*1981,DE), also known as Wayne Horse, has been thematically concerned for some time with the ambivalent wealth of Western society - the »wallowing of pigs in paradise«, as Eilers says. »The wealth and material abundance of people today leave traces in their self-image«. When there are no serious problems, when there is nothing left to wish for, it can’t get worse.” What is left is the very own self-optimization and self-realization. But the range of what is offered as success or as a ‘fulfilled life’ is limited.
Willehad Eilers, born 1981 in Peine, Germany, lives and works in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. He is a graduate of the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam and graduated from the Rijksacademy Amsterdam in 2010.
