Detailed description
Picture "ultra marin" (2015)
The two artists Stefan Guzy and Björn Wiede (artist duo "Zwölf") have composed a geometric design from 30 different shades of blue. As a basis for the multitude of blue tones, they use colour pigments that they have gathered from all over the world. This screenprint reflects the infinite and always fascinating colour facets of the sea, which leave room for interpretation.
