- Save the Balls!
Initiated by 2much for the first time in 2008 the project "save theballs" is meant to provide a violence free and safe shelter for abusedping pong balls. Month after month, millions and millions of those poorballs are cruely abused by hard beatings from the ping pong-racket andsome balls have to endure gruesome smash-beats with up to 170 km/h,which deforms the ball up to 25% percent of its original size.2much is dedicated to stop this unnecessary violence and begs younot to look the other way! Every ball bought from 2much is one moreball in safety. 
- These sculpures were made during, the very hard time, where I stopped smoking and was searching for a meaningful alternative... Mysolution was to buy a package of those balls and everytime I had theurge to smoke a cigarette, I would start painting one of those balls.Since I was used to smoke A LOT, soon after a short while I had a verylarge number of those balls and were already filling them with cottonand glued them together to create "THE TOTEMS"
