"A collage of a text that I wrote in New York in 1980, and on top of it a self-portrait. Different materials and techniques glued to a piece of Plexiglas waste. A work about the individual’s relationship to the database. Green is the colour of peace and comfort. It’s a tribute to the database. It’s so calming to be in the database."
