In 2016 I was nominated for the Kiefer Hablitzel Prize and showed four works at the Swiss Art Awards in Basel. #aaafff (autruche) is an ostrich-feather duster inside a canvas of acrylic and blackout fabric. Kasimir I is acrylic and cotton duck on a pillow; it was shown with #000fff (univision) (Kasimir I), a wall painting from the #000fff series, in which I use the hexadecimal colour #000fff, a pure screen blue. Morel (P.A.S., C.B.S.F.T.) is one of the Morel boxes, made of painting stretchers, where I keep the tests and attempts in my work; the name comes from Bioy Casares’s The Invention of Morel.
