Visual Tourette is all about expressing feelings, emotions and impressions as unfiltered and spontaneous as possible. Society, education and self-optimization is giving us a permanent distorted way of dealing with our desires, fears and repressed shadow aspects. I would like to express and integrate them as directly and untamed as possible in their creative wildness through my unfiltered thumbprint. Bombing rays of light from a birthgiving inside-universe into an outside-material-world and vice versa is kind of visual tourette as a human expression in it’s purest possibility.
Visual Tourette is a kind of hedonistic perpetual-motion-time-travel-machine and is generated like an organic life form through the process of mixing future pasts, current presence and long past ancient aspects of parallel existing future possibilities.
Dennis Busch (1971) creates chaos out of the ordinary and reassembles it into surrealist fragments of a parallel world. His works burst with movement. Figures, shapes, and forms explode with centrifugal force in the artist’s handmade works on paper. Since the late 1980s cutting, collaging and writing charmingly rude messages on vintage imagery is a big part of Dennis Busch’s life. For Busch, who describes himself as an “image butcher,” part of the appeal of collage is the ability to push through the limitations of logic. He praises the collage as a state of creative dream walking. Busch’s visual interventions can be simple, highlighting the strength that single juxtapositions can create.
