“The infinite never ages. It sits on the shores of Skyros and leafs through time. The sun tridently pierces the sky. Even the light wind doesn’t change that, refreshing the small bay of Acherounes with its breath. The earth sweats as if it were about to plunge into the wet blue. Waves and breakers form formations in the distance. Iridescent, dazzling, almost graphic. In between, a cup rushes across the firmament. The infinite sips on its mocha and waves to the handsome waitress…” (excerpt from the text by Tine Neumann)

In March 2017 I started to draw again intensively. The fascinating texts of the so-called “Presocratic Philosophers” were my companions. These aphorisms with their from today’s point of view very mysterious world of ideas had attracted me repeatedly in the past. Reading them again, I had the feeling of a strong connection between my attempt to open up drawing to me anew and the literary traces that bear witness to the beginning of Western philosophy about 2500 years ago. This is how this miniature world came into being. (Stephan Fiedler)
