Simon Veres, combines photography and the gesture of drawing. In a concentrated as well as elaborate working process, which is expressed in a significant way for Veres in the term "Sichtbarzeichnen" ("drawing visibly"), the artist highlights special exposed areas in his photographs with thousands and thousands of digitally finely placed strokes and thus at the same time seemingly takes the relatively rapid process of digital photography to absurdity in this elaborate drawing process. The deliberate exploration of the possibilities of digital processes, such as the gradual backward step within set working steps or also reflections of selected image areas, form the core of the works shown in the exhibition, whose chosen exhibition title is to be deliberately read as a palindrome in this sense.
