"FRERK…that‘s my artist name. MARCO ECKERT…that‘s my name. I‘m a graphic designer (emphases: illustration and concept)."
"I get my inspirations from the streets, watching at people and the daily grind. I like to see how things are changing and how the decaying f.e. on run-down houses is going on. Interpersonal problems are the trigger for my artworks. My characters are trying to make the right decision, they wrestle with the problems which are arising every day."
"My favourite workground is not the clean white canvas, I like to set my signs on weather-beaten objects (rusted metal sheets). Because now the forgotten things are an important piece of my artwork."
