Allgemein

Jacob fights with the angel, 2021-23, 170 x 200 cm, acrylic on canvas. It is a part of the Jacob series.

Ground and flight series

Allgemein

The idea of this series is to find a rhythm between ‘grounding’ and ‘flight’. The technical basis is canvas on cardboard. The ‘grounding’ is formed by the still life in the form of a medicine package that is sober only at first glance: the industrial shell becomes a meditation on the technochemical fine-tuning of our consciousness. For Feiler, pharmaceuticals are a symbol of ‘system-compatible’ coping with reality and creep into his paintings again and again; […]

St. Georg series

Forest series

Allgemein

The forest series has its origins in a collaboration with a director friend for a play based on Ernst Jünger’s ‘Waldgang’. In Jünger’s work, the forest forms a place of retreat and an allegorical basis for the struggle of the individual against a totalitarian system. At the same time, the forest entered cultural memory at the latest with German Romanticism (C. D. Friedrich). For example in ” Der Chasseur im Walde, 1814 “. In Feiler’s […]

The study questions ideological body images in cynically twisted layering.Solidarity !!!’ shows a grinning troll sawing off his leg to make himself equal to the astonished three-legged dog in solidarity.
