about this artwork

year of the cock

2017

starting a five-day tour on the first day of the chinese year of the rooster in january 2017 I had the idea of this artwork while inflight. those flights from germany to hongkong last almost forever and while serving food and beverages the idea of creating something representing the start into this new chinese year slowly but steadily penetrated my mind.

oh, and yes, I do know that in english you'd rather say 'year of the rooster' ...

however I am much more into 'cock' than 'rooster'  ...  thus the choice of the name of this artwork ... ;-)

and up came this one ...
