The work is based on the titling or non-titling of repellent reality and the resulting change in meaning. The series of drawings displayed is open to all kinds of interpretations and there is another identical concealed series with titles. The existence of this secret series is only revealed in the technical information regarding the work which should list 24 drawings when what one actually sees is 12, as well as the use of graphite which only exists in the title of the hidden drawings. |
