'Spectacular Interferometry' (2017) is a series of very large digital prints by Robert Estermann. Each print consists of two different sets of drawings; one is his recent abstract drawings of beaches, the other is the pseudo technical drawings of automobiles that he drew at the age of twelve when he was obsessed with the design and measurement of cars. In Spectacular Interferometry, the artist juxtaposes them into a single pictorial plane and plays with the idea of measurement in the “(non) scale of a modernist dream” to interfere with his pragmatic approach as child car designer.

I am interested in the idea of Scenic Tongical as a movement, uniting the great Western and Eastern ideas of landscape, landscaping and scenic representation, its geophysical properties, with those of the physics of speech (tongical). It is an invitation to build, to create and to believe in the new. To obtain fluency of speech where there was no speech. Rethinking the space for the formation of speech, beyond any static notions of identity.
