Acquired directly from the artist by the present owner in 2003.
When the Berlin Wall collapsed at the end of the 1980s and the 500,000 Soviet soldiers who surrounded West Berlin returned home, I thought that peace would come to Europe in a permanent way. This 2003 canvas painting Thérèse sees the end of the tunnel, representing a yellow and blue head, did not at that time symbolise the resistance of Ukraine against the attack of Russia, but since 24 February 2022, its hidden message reappears in the daylight: freedom will always win in the end.
