“Using countless gossamer-thin layers of colour I seek to produce in this work a concentrated, deep red, meditative field of colour. Fine modulations cause the colour to vibrate. A painted ground, which is net-like and reminiscent of reptile skin in its texture, clearly visible at the edges of the circle and in part in the centre, further strengthens the spatial depth of this red lake of colour.
Through this interweaving of the different applications of colour, I create a wave-like movement within the circle, and in this way I seek to dissolve the two-dimensional limits of the canvas.
Using high gloss layers, I contrast the permeation at the centre of the colour field with a subtle spatial limit, which reveals reflections and clearly defines the pictorial limits of the work with light reflexes on the colour surface.” (Robert Schaberl 2016)
