Catalogue Note

Composed as a triptych in 2005. Each of these works was initially conceived as single piece between 1998 and 2001 and then assembled by the artist as a triptych. The sequence of the panels is described on the reverse by the artist.   

Ursprünglich wurde zwischen 1998 und 2001 jedes Werk als eigenständiges Werk kreiert und dann vom Künstler als Triptychon zusammengesetzt. Die Reihenfolge der Bilder ist auf der Rückseite vom Künstler definiert.
