The title Time Circle first appeared in my work in 2002. Before that, there were many works in which the circle was a crucial part of the image. Like, for example, Meal of Friends or Stoelendans (Musical chairs). Visualizing the intimate connection with each other is perhaps more beautiful than reality because friction quickly begins to occur there. The moment when every individual fits comfortably into the group never lasts long. Recognizing that moment and enjoying it is often only possible when you look back. The cutting technique that I first discovered in Rietveld and subsequently applied in many works such as Stampede or Babel’s End II is also applicable on this scale.
