| "YELLOW is amongst other things associated with sunshine and pleasure, but also with envy and jealousy. The text is from H.C. Artmann, 'Die Sonne war ein grünes Ei. Von der Erschaffung der Welt und ihren Dingen' (The sun was a green egg. On the creation of the world and its things). It deals with the relationship between sun, moon, and a thing, as well as the creation of the stars and falling stars.
Using 20 point Cicero wooden type and inks of different transparencies, letters are printed overlaid, yellow and onto yellow paper. The format of the book only permits five or six of letters per line, so that words are split but not in syllables." Ines von Ketelhodt |
