«Henk Cornelissen taught at the Graphic Design Department of the Breda Art and Design College St. Joost for 30 years. Among other things he also was Head of design at the NOS (Dutch Broadcasting Organisation), and he designed the first series of Christmas stamps in 1987. He then chose to put his own free work before a further career in graphic design.

In 1992 he decided to challenge chance by matching the letters T, O, E, V, A, L (Dutch for CHANCE) with the eyes on a dice. The numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, therefore, had to come up consecutively to make the word TOEVAL. On a 50 x 65 cm. sheet of paper every roll of the dice was recorded by stamping the matching letter. Each six rolls form a word/letter combination, 18 words per line, 48 lines per sheet, 9 sheets per year, each year stamped in a different colour.

The probability of the word TOEVAL coming up in six rolls is 1 in 279,936. On Thursday 9 January 2003 at 14:12 h. on sheet number 100, after 516,228 rolls, there it was: the final word.

In the years following 2003 Cornelissen went on to record all 86,038 possible words on 6 new sheets. These contain all the words that did or did not come up and how many times. The complete project makes for a breathtaking graphic presentation.»
