Work description and interpretation
Fragments of hard stone with fragments of plasticine
Series description and interpretation
Stratifications with stones
The stones are chosen to represent the other time: geological time. And they are always placed alongside one of my stratifications of coloured Plasticine. One colour a day is sedimented one on top of the other. A stratified painting, a fragment of painting is placed next to a piece of stone. The time of the painting, a human time, the time of life in relation to the time of the world.
