Series: "Silicon Objects"

When looking for unusual materials for my picture objects, for which other materials than colors should be the determining medium, I found the variety of computer chips, which are synonymous with the third industrial revolution - the digitization. From this the picture series "Silicon Objects" developed.
Freed from their original function after only a few years in use, the chips are now given a new statement by their new use and arrangement.

For all "Silicon Objects":

Fine selected computer chips from antique computers arranged on 5-times
glued plywood (poplar) or chipboard.
Framed. Equipped with hanging devices - ready to hang up.
Titled, dated and signed on the back side.
