  The title of the work is a reference to the abstract pictures created by Gerhard Richter since the mid-1970s and the technique employed of removal and overpainting in layers. These are, in their avoidance of any plan, an antipode to perspective but nevertheless this piece relates to a sentence of Richters: “Painting is the creation of an analogy to the indescribable and the incomprehensible which should in this way take shape and become accessible”. The mismatch of title and work is a reference to the synthesis of differing influences from art history which have led to the composition.
