Untitled (1991)

This was the last time I did a comic. I tried to push this as far as I could, and be done with it. Today I think I had to get this one out of my system to be able to try out other things.
I filled the space of 70 x 100 cm with as much detail as possible, maybe to test if there would be any limit to this technique, any detail I could not cut out of the cardbord with my stencil knife.

As a piece of craftmansship I can still appreciate it, but as an image it doesn't do anything for me, and somehow I think, it never has. And the reason for it is that there is TOO MUCH detail in it, there is no room for ambiguity and interpretation.
