"Man is born with great potential. But only a small part of it is used by him, especially in the creative field. Much is lost through socialization. But with Inga it is different.

"My "Heads" are also a tribute to the people who went or are going their own ways to find their place in a society, as strangers or born in the country or as strangers in their own country. No matter if he is a Uyghur, a Mexican farmer, a Siberian shaman, a Tibetan beggar, a stubborn remaining punk or a sad Muslim old man in Berlin Kreuzberg" - Inge H.Schmidt
