The experiences I had researching the Palette on a Surface (I) and (II) led to further works. I created four palettes in various colors, measuring around 60x40 cm. I tore each of them off the surface and shaped them in space. Together they formed a statement that might be described as: the poet attempts to write a poem, crumples up the page, and throws it in the trash. In my case, the artist/painter crumples up the palette. This process could be repeated infinitely.
