always comes from the form, so he says, from geome- trical or organical forms from microskopie, for example blood cells.
Then when drawing emotion sets in, relation to the metaphysical. "The emotions are not presented but come up when drawing".
Emotion in generell is a step below perception. In regards of the term perception  - please allow this short excursion - we had a talk event in june 2005. Prof. Dr. W. Dauch from Zentrum für schwerst Schädel-Hirnverletzte (the centre of severely brain injured) at the AK (generell hospital) of Eilbek based on his research formulated that perception is forming of hypothesis. Those hypothesises should help  like crutches so-to-say to stay in the world at all. It needs to be said that traditionally hope exists that this personal world should change to a paradise one day.

What kind of emotions as step below perception does Stefan Oppermann demand from his protagonist in the drawings?
You will decide for yourself when looking on.

In the advance talk with him we agreed of the emotion agony, restriction, finality, being entangled in life situantions and the possibility and impossibility of developing.
What is entangled here in what?
In answering this question we get to what was worded at the beginning:
Those strange technical interiors without room talk about a light, so-to-speak  solipsistical being, a being without You. The vis-a-vis is the gadget. This small being is probably male, but not in such offensiv manner as bred in our sports- and fightworld. To identify as homo sapiens by shape but too passive as homo faber. Anyhow it is no individual, no subject. It has not hair-do
and no personal marks, is more a stereotype. Even if it appears four times or many times, it still is always the same. Precisely solus (alone), solipsistical, actually not quite there.
 
For Stefan Oppermann it is so-to-speak a substitute, a dummy like in crash tests, a genderless being actually.
Worded positively though it is the actual cause, the inner strength of the technical gadgets, the coverings and scaffolds. What else should the inner of the car let gush forth, what creates the cone of view? (hints to related drawings).

Noted at the side - do we have with this a starting point for the contemporary debate of fuel?

This impersonal dummy could actually also be seen as hidden soul body, as ueber-personal being, as immanent cause.
Different than with Leonardo or Vitruv it is not the measure of all things but rather with its navel formsthe centre of a radar in which it happens to be stuck like the ghost in the bottle. This variation of formulation of the Vitruv-wheel has exactly the ambivalenz into which Stefan Oppermann releases us. We either can treasure  the symbiosis between spirit and from, or we can see  the powerlessness of the human being in his created gadgets. Stefan Oppermann says: " We humans create the objects for us so that we go on. Often though these objects turn on us. Beyond those gadgets there is NOTHING."
No paradise? It depends on your view. The longing, the will for becoming and growing lets this being stray, float in many directions on his search for a better world - but always he is bound to his defintion in the twodimensional drawing.
Beyond this there is not exhibition. The paradise?
