An exploration of the notion of an unbiased rather chaotic ground not subordinated to ideas of representation. The ground itself is undifferentiated and a difference in itself. Through an open mind, exploratory shapes and forms became visually equal and not representational.

Any possible meaning derived from the illusionary perception of the drawings, either as figures or ‘realistic’ objects, is a mere coincidence. Nevertheless, an open question remains on how our learned patterns and attitudes are dictating or restricting our approach toward undifferentiated possibilities. One own’s experience and skills might oppose a free expression of difference. And even might impose preconceived ideas into representational forms.
