His art mainly develops between Italy and Germany, touching also other countries in Europe and in the world. the work of Pfeiffer complies with natural and artificial locations and the materials mostly used by the artist are bricks, synthetic fiber cables and neon lights for his bright graffiti.
Metamorphose
In 2019 I started working on my art installation 'Waldlabyrinth' from 2003. And like that the monument got another signification. I covered the tree trunks with bitumen and made it so clear how human actions impair nature and sometimes suffocate. It is a rare example of the change in art objects in public spaces. A necessary change to do justice to the changing living conditions of humans. The tree trunks are a symbol of our time.
