Paper SciFi by Karl Heinz Jeron

I create science fiction, paper worlds, and tell stories that really stretch perception in one's mind. My work brings together complex, handmade creations with compelling narratives, inviting an audience to realms of exploration and discovery.

Central to my practice is a kind of worldmaking: the energetic act of building imaginative landscapes out of the debris of complex lived experiences of life. The worlds breathe and pulse with ambiguity, rejoicing in discomfort as their certainty fades.

The interest for me lies not in answers but in questions regarding storytelling. It is a way of negotiating realities that keep shifting-but every other layer reveals a new perspective. Here, objectivity gives way to fluidity, and creation is a journey continuous and transformative.

It becomes an invitation to others for the consideration of the world-and worlds-within-worlds-as not fixed, but pliable constructs of thought, imagination, and shared experience. The idea is to invite people openly into these layered narratives, to discover new possibilities by means of curiosity and play.

This is absolutely brilliant, breathtaking; there are echoes of everyone from Guston to the performances of Cage and others @ 9 evenings to happenings; I see echoes of David Bohm, who's from my home town etc. etc. But the combination of everything, the performance aspect, occasioned by stop-motion/real-time/etc. is phenomenal. I'm not on Mastodon, at least not now, and hope you keep posting this work and others - would love to know more about your process, etc. 

Thank you greatly, wonderful -
