"1000 Words" (writting and errasing on the wall, spot light)

Gerrit Rietveld Academie, Amsterdam, 2007

The adage "A picture is worth a thousand words" refers to the idea that complex stories can be described with just a single still image, or that an image may be more influential than a substantial amount of text.

After writing while counting 1000 words of free associations on the wall in the Gymzaal in a circle I have erased the words, creating an image. I placed a spotlight to accentuate a mural as a residue of my action creating an environment for contemplation.
