The large room of the G.A.S-station is immersed in black and white. In the centre, there are objects as well as enigmatic apparatuses surrounded by a collection of sheets and shadowy drawings on the walls. The painted symbols on the paper sheets suggest sentences in a language whose letters are unfamiliar to us. This conceals the information that written language normally contains. Language forms the basis for a conscious confrontation with the complexity of our world.

The thinking is constantly on the way to find reasons and explanations for the happening in the world, for the being of the things. The classification of the things calms the mind, drawer open: as if one had grasped the essence of the things, but what falls away thereby? What disappears from the consciousness or had never been there?

And on the other hand, the inexplicable, the magic - don't we miss it in the materialistic view of the world that is so laboriously rational?
