Maximilian Kirmse's visual worlds tell of the city's very own zest for life and vitality, far removed from tourist fantasies of the glamorous old West, sleepwalking party people in Mitte or cool hipsters in the gentrified urban landscape of Prenzlauer Berg.
His drawings and paintings capture the easygoing way of life in his neighbourhood, bringing together stylistic and aesthetic elements from "high" and "low" culture, with some of his motifs seemingly lifted from comics culture.
Last but not least, his tableaux illuminate a fin-de-siècle attitude to life.
