When I knew that I would be back in Berlin, I wrote to Susane. She is the first person I met after arriving in this city and her welcoming was the warmest. Traveling become so much more refined and precious when the memories of encounters last long after they took place, then reshape into new exchanges. It’s now my pleasure to welcome this Berlin based painter to the Collection.
The title of this painting refers to an island in the Red Sea that the French explorer Jacques-Yves Cousteau and his team perused in the 1960s. They discovered that there were no life on it except for large quantities of a certain type of crabs running up and down incessantly.
