Summary

This quote highlights the unmatched beauty and significance of a mother. It suggests that while gold can be made more visually appealing by adding a layer of gold, it cannot enhance the inherent beauty of gold itself. Similarly, no external enhancements or alterations can compare to the natural beauty and irreplaceable role of a mother in one's life. It emphasizes the idea that a mother's intrinsic beauty, love, and influence are incomparable to anything else in the world.

In my prints I try to show that we live in a beautiful and orderly world and not in a chaos without norms, as we sometimes seem to. My subjects are also often playful. I cannot help mocking all our unwavering certainties. It is, for example, great fun deliberately to confuse two and three dimensions, the plane and space, or to poke fun at gravity. Are you sure that a floor cannot also be a ceiling? Are you absolutely certain that you go up when you walk up a staircase? Can you be definite that it is impossible to eat your cake and have it?Variant translation: I can't keep from fooling around with our irrefutable certainties. It is, for example, a pleasure knowingly to mix up two and three dimensionalities, flat and spatial, and to make fun of gravity.
