The piece is the offspring of a spontaneous and pretty crazy idea
that came about when I suddenly “saw” that by “confronting”, actually
layering with the same density two digitized, but otherwise
completely disconnected sketches from two different years, something
special could be the result and to my complete surprise this was the
case, happening like it came from “Outer Space”. It was quite down to
earth working in detail that made this subtly colored print, which
took a lot of time. Concerning this work process, it is no surprise
at all that the hardest task was to make it still look like gossamer.
