There Is Something In Such Laws That Takes The Breath Away. They Are Not Discoveries Or Inventions Of The Human Mind, But Exist Independently Of Us. In A Moment Of Clarity, One Can At Most Discover That They Are There And Take Them Into Account. Long Before There Were People On The Earth, Crystals Were Already Growing In The Earth's Crust. On One Day Or Another, A Human Being First Came Across Such A Sparkling Morsel Of Regularity Lying On The Ground Or Hit One With His Stone Tool And It Broke Off And Fell At His Feet, And He Picked It Up And Regarded It In His Open Hand, And He Was Amazed.

I Try In My Prints To Testify That We Live In A Beautiful And Orderly World, Not In A Chaos Without Norms, Even Though That Is How It Sometimes Appears. My Subjects Are Also Often Playful: I Cannot Refrain From Demonstrating The Nonsensicalness Of Some Of What We Take To Be Irrefutable Certainties. It Is, For Example, A Pleasure To Deliberately Mix Together Objects Of Two And Three Dimensions, Surface And Spatial Relationships, And To Make Fun Of Gravity.
