@kriegundfreitag is actually Tobias Vogel and has been publishing his now famous humorous and poetic stick figure drawings on various social networks since 2017. The name "@kriegundfreitag" came about through the autocorrect on his mobile phone, which wrote "Freitag" instead of "Frieden". He gained greater fame with his stick figure chain and the associated fundraising campaign he drew in 2018 to mark the riots in Chemnitz. After the publication of his first book "Schweres Geknitter" in 2019, the Hamburg native hung up his bread job in 2020. In the meantime, he inspires over 325,000 people on social networks as a full-time artist. In 2019, he won the Grimme Online Award in the category "Culture and Entertainment", and in 2020 he was awarded the Max-und-Moritz Audience Award at the Comic Salon.
