Gazing at the works SCENERY VII and SCENERY VII (CLOSE UP), the viewer is overcome by a feeling that is both uneasy and ecstatic. All that remains of a former lush forest are a few tree stumps, branches, and shrubs that are torn apart. A shower of glaring light sets in and illuminates the sky. Although the gloomy landscape evokes associations with images of war or natural disasters, the lines and carved-out surfaces do not follow the conventions of realistic depictions and take on a life of their own.
