But who is

MAJUS HERMES

"If you know, you know"

Hi, I'm Majus

I am an architect and artist based in South-West Germany.
Drawing has been a constant part of my life for as long as I can remember. What began as a personal habit of sketching and filling pages with ideas gradually became an important creative counterbalance to my work in architecture. While architecture focuses on real spaces and constraints, drawing allows me to explore places, structures, and atmospheres more freely.

In early 2025, I began sharing my work publicly on Instagram and started producing prints of selected drawings and series. Since then, I’ve also been presenting my work at selected art markets, where I enjoy connecting with people who take the time to look closely at the drawings and discover the many small details within them.

My work moves between different visual approaches, but most of my drawings are created with black ink on white paper. I’m particularly drawn to the precision and contrast of ink, which allows me to build dense, highly detailed compositions and layered architectural forms. Many pieces evolve slowly, growing line by line as structures, textures, and small elements accumulate.

Since late 2025, I’ve also started experimenting more with color, gradually introducing it into my work and exploring how it interacts with the line-based nature of my drawings. Alongside my ink pieces, I continue to try out new techniques, styles, and visual ideas as part of an ongoing process of experimentation and exploration.
