Crosshatching Colorspace
Crosshatching Colorspace is the fourth systemic installation of our colorspace series. Layers of dawn-colors are inscribed into a blue space by a robotic protagonist day after day. Horizontal and diagonal fields are arising, overlayering and fading. Thus depth and appearance of the colorspace are continuously modulating– the everchanging same. These ongoing transitions are captured by a daily photograph, a sequence of moments. Crosshatching Colorspace is exhibited at Colab Gallery, Weil am Rhein from 13.06.2015 until 13.09.2015.

“My senses of space, of distance, and of direction entirely vanished. When I looked for the ground I sometimes looked down, sometimes up, sometimes left, sometimes right. I thought I was very high up when I would suddenly be thrown to earth in a vertical spin.(…) I was pulled up to 3,000 feet in two minutes by the 500-horsepower motor. It danced, it pushed, it tossed…Ah! la la!”

Lettre à sa mère 1921
“The machine does not isolate man from the great problems of nature but plunges him more deeply into them.”
