Stratification 2011 #1

Work description and interpretation
Layers of Plasticine colours spread one on the top of the other on a wooden base, all of which is kept in a Plexiglas box. The work can be installed on a wall without the box or lying horizontally with or without the box.
Series description and interpretation
Stratifications
A substance that I can take in my hand, that allows me to feel the material nature of the colour. The dimension of the work is determined by the quantity of substance that can be held in one’s fist. I can work with it all together. Every day a colour. Every layer completely covers the underlying one, but when it is finished all the passages will be visible laterally.
