This work refers to the inside of things, in this case, the inside of stones such as agate, jasper or onyx. Except that they are not real stones, but objects in trompe l’oeil. They represent the frantic attempts of the artist to translate the intensity, the beauty and the inaccessibility of nature and its mysteries. They are translated here into useful objects: a writing table or a shelf.
