Thomas Rempen

for decades my topic was reduction. since 12.2012 i am working deconstructively with the minimum of 
pictorial information. there is one fact at all: the smallest pictorial information in the universe of 0+1 is 1 px. 
but 1 px is – in my age – almost invisible. you need to have some more and my solution was a section of 1 px width. 

what happens seperating sections from pictures is simply comparable to microscopy. 
the pictorial section needs to be enlarged the same way scientists experimenting with cells to see their structure. 

it's a kind of censorship and at the same time a linear and flawless quote in itself. 
this is a new position in my art, referring to the social discussions in germany about plagiarized dissertations. 
i just "quote" myself — in particular all the spadework — in the most radical way reaching flawless truth.

sectioning portraits demands more pictorial information of the original picture than landscapes do.
