Biography
Metal-staple-art: I draw with metal staples.
Thousends of industrial metal staples are stapled on wood (with laminated white canvas). "The golden Labyrinth" is drawn with gold-galvanised (24 carat) metal staples. The staples I galvanized by myself with engineering machine. The metal reflects the light and depending on the viewing angle puts the picture in permanent alteration.
