The compositions in the Turmbau series conceptualize the tower as a manifestation of power, visible from afar. It is also an observation point enabling one to see further and earlier, and an fortified feature designed to ensure safety. The black-and-white forms echo an architectural metaphor of civilization as a seemingly solid yet intrinsically fragile structure. In the psychogeographical dimension, the series shows the silhouettes of castles to be spaces of ideology, as well as venues of personal experience and introspection.
