sugar (glucose, isomalt), resin sealing on canvas, 160 x 120 cm
The sugar (glucose), obtained biotechnologically from G. W. F. Hegel's "Phenomenology of Spirit", is melted and used as painting material. The circular discs, reminiscent of lollipops behind which Hegel's spiral text can be seen, form the structure of a glucose molecule.
