The source of inspiration for this kinetic object was the Op-Art art of the 60s. As they captivated the recipients by strong contrasts, here a depth effect is created by additional movement of the graphic patterns.
The central motif is based on 5 self-portraits that were taken in profile, laterally and frontally and then assembled photographically to a picture, this is backed by a grid of lines.
