The colors of this small composition gain their sensitivity through the subtle wash. Forms become transparent, without being in a process of dissolution. The actually silent composition gains a narrative component by means of rudimentary calligraphic signs, its decryption, however, remains impossible. Above all, there is an aesthetic, almost archaic silence, neither interrupted by color accents nor by aggressive forms. [KD].
