The „Drop prints“ are an ironic marriage of art and technology. This work questions the social phenomenon of the idealization of technology in the hopes of emancipation from philosophical problems. The drips, are photo-documented relics of paint which have drifted in the process of "traditional painting", away from their contextual chains, (away from the canvas), but which, through their documentation and representation, (the photograph, and the laser print), enter back into a traditional subjectified role.
