I think, for good reasons one can say, repetitive is an essential, maybe the characteristic of our world (the being). Any leaf of a tree appears to us like any other, but no two leaves are alike (this example is from the philosopher Leibniz). Not in this year and not during the lifetime of the tree. And we do not find this leaf in other trees - at any time. So the same thing always seems to come back with a small deviation. But what distinguishes individual leaves, or individual stars from each other? What exactly makes a person to this person? Can we see more than functional pragmatic reasons behind the constantly recurring deviations?

At the moment I am trying to use mathematical algorithms in my pictures to produce results that obviously differ greatly from each other, but they often have the same mathematical basis. If you take a closer look, you can see that (the pictures that belong together also always have the same basic name in the picture name). The generated basic geometries, which I then process further, lie between the 2nd and 3rd dimension, they are not flat, but also not three-dimensional.
Later I would like to extend my considerations to aspects of time, space, form and content.
