Georg Meyer-Wiel × Five Layers of Flash
five limited-edition artworks inspired by the emotional archetypes of Uncovered Part. II Body
As the collaboration developed, it naturally expanded beyond Soul. In parallel with the work on Uncovered: Part I, Georg began creating a separate body of work in dialogue with Uncovered Part II. Body. Drawing from the visual and emotional world of Body, these works translate photography into drawing and mixed media, forming a new expression within the same universe.
From this process emerged Five Layers of Flash: a limited-edition print series, alongside a small group of hand-finished original artworks. Together, they extend the language of Uncovered into a different medium while remaining rooted in the same emotional core.
These works are not side projects, but part of an ongoing artistic exchange shaped by trust, presence, and shared understanding.
“Together, we are building a layered body of work that reflects the core of Uncovered: body, memory, emotion, and transformation.”
The idea of Five Layers of Flash is rooted in the act of undressing - not as performance, but as transformation. For Georg, clothing is never just fabric. It carries identity, memory, and social codes. Removing it becomes a way of moving closer to truth.
Each print reflects a distinct emotional state - shaped by tension, desire, control, isolation, or longing. These are not characters or costumes, but states of being: moments many of us pass through at different stages of life. What exists as photography in Body is translated here into drawing and mixed media, allowing the same emotional themes to surface in a new form.
