Executed in February 1978. This large and encompassing sphere acts as a mirror or a portal to another dimension in which time, energy, and space collapse. Inspired by the universality and vastness of the cosmos, Grüner Spiegel vor Wüste encourages us to reflect on ourselves by turning our attention inward and pondering our collective being.
