‘Waiting’ contains a collage of photographs of plants and animals living on a rock near the beach. It seems to be an underwater picture, but it is not. The rhythm of their life is governed by the tide. Two times a day the animals are aroused during high tide that feeds them, as opposed to our day/night rhythm. They are simply there, for years and years, unseen by humans.

I doubted before printing ‘Waiting’. I was afraid of the esthetic qualities of the collage – it is ‘beautiful’, remarkably close to kitsch. It could be a wallpaper or a background plate of an aquarium in a Chinese restaurant. But finally, I thought I would not be consequent with my own principles if I did not print it.
