I experimented with foil in the studio and was somewhat ashamed at first, because I felt that I had done something forbidden or somehow pornographic. Silver foil is a deco material of consumer society, and to use that material for abstract painting was new and scary at the beginning. It’s similar to pop art: things from the store window come onto the canvas. It’s an identical process, only in the abstract.
