“Using countless gossamer-thin layers
of colour I seek to produce in this work a
concentrated, deep red, meditative field
of colour. Fine modulations cause the
colour to vibrate. A painted ground, which
is net-like and reminiscent of reptile skin
in its texture, clearly visible at the edges of
the circle and in part in the centre, further
strengthens the spatial depth of this red
lake of colour.
Through this interweaving of the different
applications of colour, I create a wave-like
movement within the circle, and in this
way I seek to dissolve the two-dimensional
limits of the canvas.
Using high gloss layers, I contrast the per-
meation at the centre of the colour field
with a subtle spatial limit, which reveals
reflections and clearly defines the pictorial
limits of the work with light reflexes on the
colour surface.” (Robert Schaberl 2016)
