Wayne Horse aka W. Eilers was born April the 14th in 1981. From his early
days on he was obsessed with drawing. He works on a wide range of media,
from sketchbook drawings to huge murals, videos, internet based works,
puppets, prints and masks. Eilers loves to create situations, rather than
whole stories, thus leaving space to breathe for character and surrounding.
He believes that a story will always evolve by itself out of small apparently
unconnected fragment, even though this story will be a different one for
every spectator.
His works often seem obscene at first sight, which is not very surprising
considering that he takes big parts of his inspiration from b choice celebrities
and popular culture. People like max wright, alf, david hasselhoff, chuck
norris etc make an disturbingly high appearance of his output.
His style reminds of japanese character design as much as of "zap
comics" from the seventies. Eventhough he works a lot with computers
he manages to keep a handmade feeling to all of his creations.
