"In the abstract, you need a lot of sketches and studies. In the end, you retain only the one that has the most force. For me, Z is a fin de siècle icon. It's all about rare tonal relationships. A painting can't be explained; it retains its mystery. Besides, art is meant to confuse in the first place.
