The Environs are landscapes that are not altogether realistic; they are rather visualisations of the artist’s imagined visions of his immediate environs, his mini-motherland. Dietrich Helms favours watercolour as it enables him to mix colour freely. According to the artist, this process reveals how impressions and memories function.
