Untitled (Eines Tages...)
1990

A black and white image featuring a young boy's portrait with a serious expression. The image is overlaid with a dense pattern of black squares and rectangles, obscuring parts of his face and body. Surrounding the portrait is a substantial amount of text in German, indicating a serious or contemplative message. The bottom of the image contains a small logo and text, suggesting it may be part of a campaign or publication.
