Reality Transformed
PANORAMA #9
This is a collection of idiosyncratic productions which are hard to categorise. What they all have in common is the reshaping of visible reality, which is romanticised, conceptualised, enlarged and compromised, made to vibrate and converted into sound. This results in complete abstraction.
