Commissar Hjuler and Mama Baer

Detlev Hjuler––also referred to as Kommissar Hjuler––born 1967 and Mama Baer born 1981 having worked as musicians in their very experimental vein for a number of years. Afterwards they increasingly turned to the creation of sculptures and paintings. Given their strange music, one might have expected them to be have been artists from the start. But they only began regarding themselves as artists in summer 2006, which marked a turning point in their career: their output of paintings and sculptures began to rise. Mama Baer now is supported by WOMENSRADIO, Oakland/CA, U.S.A., presenting her music for several radio transmissions and some tracks as mp3-files on their website. They are based in Flensburg/Germany. | see also ASYLUM LUNATICUM
