These paintings are both a confession and a record—fragments of fading memories from my formative years—and an attempt to share a sense of contemporaneous synchronicity with the viewer.This shared synchronicity of primal time and objects seeks to retrieve peaceful memories embedded in our consciousness, offering a quiet means of healing from the pain of the present.Although the expressions often reflect incomplete recollections and exaggerated records, the intent remains: to exchange simultaneous experiences and offer mutual solace.These days, I find myself sending more off than waiting.Even if I spend all day on the act of "pausing," time continues to pass just outside my door.  David Youm, Alice and Dave, Acrylic on canvas, 100.0x100.0cm, 2025 David Youm, A visible afternoon, Acrylic on canvas, 65.1x50.0cm, 2023 David Youm, I've lived a wonderful time with you, Acrylic on canvas, 91.0x91.0cm, 2023

 Vita Alfred HoeflerBorn: 1958 in Seefeld/Tyrol, Austria Alfred Hoefler draws inspiration from the natural elements of earth, fire, water, air, and metal, developing a unique artistic language that bridges the physical and emotional realms. His large-scale paintings and sculptures reveal hidden emotions through archetypal symbols and spontaneous brushwork, exploring the dynamic interplay between inner perception and external reality. Hoefler’s “paintings of the soul” reflect the energy of nature while delving into fundamental archetypes of human experience.Through his exploration of diverse materials and natural forces, Alfred Hoefler has continually expanded the boundaries of art. He ventures beyond the physical world into the unseen digital realm, investigating the varied possibilities of contemporary art. His works often echo the colors and forms found in nature, embodying personal emotion and psychological inquiry. Recently, his so-called “paintings of the soul” have expressed concealed feelings and ideas with primal symbols and improvisational brushstrokes.Since 2018, Hoefler has produced numerous new works that reflect nature’s energy and explore the essential archetypes of human experience. His large-scale paintings and sculptures symbolize the interaction between inner and outer awareness. Hoefler’s artistic philosophy invites viewers to deeply connect with his work, allowing for individual interpretations that foster personal reflection. This dynamic interaction helps audiences feel a sense of unity with the art, guiding them on a profound journey of empathy and understanding.Living in a self-sustaining home with a garden in Dordogne, France, Hoefler is fully immersed in his art. The tranquil environment continuously inspires his creative process, providing a rich foundation for artistic growth.Alfred Hoefler’s art beautifully intertwines the splendor of nature with profound emotion, acting as a bridge between the visible and invisible worlds. His work goes beyond merely reflecting the surroundings; it invites viewers to explore their own inner landscapes, revealing a harmonious connection between personal experience and universal symbolism. Through his art, Hoefler persistently delves into the depths of human existence.  Alfred Hoefler, Comfort, Mixed media, 90.0x90.0, 2024 Alfred Hoefler, Encounter, Mixed media, 90.0x75.0cm, 2024 Alfred Hoefler, Heavy heart, Mixed media, 60.0x80.0cm, 2024 Alfred Hoefler, Search, Mixed media, 90.0x75.0cm, 2024
