The metropolitan setting of Berlin with its lively, multicolored atmosphere and as a counterpart and possible refuge nature, the urban hinterland with its rivers and lakes, the cheerful ado at the shores of Wannsee, recreation in the open countryside, sailing – all these are recurring themes in Keils work. Whereas in the early work that refers stilistically to the german expressionism mainly the Berlin Bohemiens and Hippies of Keils youth occur, the artist recently tends to assemble collage compositions with elements of commercials or even campaining that create a very particular metropolitan atmosphere.
