Sechs knoten
2008-09

Vasari says "He (Leonardo) spend much time in the making of a design of a series of knots so that the rope could be followed from one end to another, and whose filled a whole round space.

Between 1506 and 1507, Dürer copy two of Leonardo's designs and performs four more, giving rise to the series of woodcuts called “Sehcs Knoten”.

“Sechs Knoten” (Six knots) refers specifically to the process of construction of these designs.

In 2008, I make these drawings in digital photography with light of a candle: drawing, light and continuity.
