MY DIPLOMA: CREATING A SUPERHERO FOR GERMANY
the superhero’s name ist mirrorheart and he is a kindly social-hero and a good buddy.
on the one hand, his super-power is to unmask people that feel in bigger, kind of upper-class positions and his job is to destroy their authority and the thinking of status-symbols. on the other hand, he’s pushing the self-confidence of people in need of respect and kindness. how he does it, you can see in a few examples on this page, and the whole spectrum at his homepage called www.mirrorheart.tv.

in this example, mirrorheart is fighting the arrogance of an upper-class-brand in a special way.
in this example, mirrorheart is telling the plastic surgery, that nobody needs their job, because everybody is beautiful.
in this example, mirrorheart is doing a performance in a group, giving the door-boy of a high-class-hotel a load of self-confidence in a special way.
everybody should have the given possibility to feel like a superhero. so i did this figure in life size. same quite for all.
visit mirrorheart, get news and see all of his performances at www.mirrorheart.tv
mirrorheart likes to invite you to be his friend on facebook!
