Assignment given: Make a self portrait in letters!

Solution: "Hitler or Ceausescu?"

Explanation: I decided to see myself from a historical point of view.while asking myself the notorious question "who am i ?" i went on to ask "who made me?" besides the fact that i have a mother & a father and that i am totaly sure to identify them as my biological roots i do also have other parents.this work wants to pay tribute to the specific social/political circumstances i was born and grew up in.
the (political) powers that ruled my biography are to me visible until the present day. as i perceive my biography as something that still goes on (i am alive!) i rather draw a (life-) line than to make a single point here.

to represent life as a process it seems to me correct to create a question as a self-portrait rather than a simple sentence or word.
coming from that historical POV i can further say that i found out to be strongly influenced by the results of the second world war, and everything that came after - namely by the two totalitarian regimes installed by Hitler & Ceausescu.
the colours of the letters are representing their two main ideologies of comunism & nationalsocialism.
for deeper understanding one must know that i moved at the age of 9 years from romania to germany. the reason why we had to leave our "Heimat" was the terrible situation in comunist romania at that time. ending up in germany i did not only have to deal with the day-to-day problems of a growing up but also with the specific german history. more precisely the collective problem of identification - how can you be proud of yourself as being german after the terrible events of the third reich?
this self-portait is a comment on those historical events that start to happen 60 years ago and keep on reaching us in their multiple ways until present time.
let me say of course not only bad things occured to come from these two countries but also good ones :-) - like myself ?!?
to those who might know me a bit: one will also recognize a not only ironical comment on myself, as i sometimes tend to be too impulsive & direct to others. sorry for that! but you know who you are!!

Now, after we found out who is responsible for this mess, i want to finish diese Nabelschau with the same question: who am I ?
