Sometimes poetic, nostalgic or romantic, it is a component of his art or also stands on its own as a work. In his paintings, the space is indeterminate, the figures are not located but sketchy and fleeting, the text elements seem spontaneous. The colouring moves in a narrow spectrum between black, grey, white and brown tones; mixed variations of the material he predominantly uses: Bitumen. Wood is also frequently used. These simple and rather rough materials, usually used in street or house construction, contrast with the intimate, tender pictorial situations. Gender, relationships, self-determination and self-discovery are central themes in his work. Coming from Zimbabwe, a state where homosexual acts between men are punishable, Seiler's works also set an example for equal sexual orientation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"[My work] is a deep longing for understanding. Based on something I lack, something I cannot return to.
