Painting and graphical reproduction form the focal point of Christian Freudenberger’s creative artistic process in which he exploits the design possibilities of the aforementioned media and takes questioning the value of painting to its limit. The image composition of his collages is dominated by graphical elements and their ratio of surface and space, often following a rigorous arrangement which initially seems to be self-sufficient. Nevertheless, the interaction of different picture elements gives rise to a means of observation in which all the parts come together to form a whole and a homogenous picture composition is created.

Christian Freudenberger’s large canvas images create associations with familiar everyday motifs which remain ambiguous and puzzling due to the figurative and abstract interaction. Through the intensive processes of change, reconstruction of the original motifs and effective staging of set pieces from various picture sources, digital collages are created which are printed directly on the canvas using pigment printing processes.
