Abstract film, a thin and richly structured painting was made using various etching and stencil techniques. Layers of dots and tiny points create an illusion of variously focused layers in mutual motion. In relation to the depth in which the material is being affected the color shades are being gradually separated from the originally black positive (i.e. which contained the whole color spectrum) by the use of textile stencils, sulfuric acid and chlorine. Another method was the use of a pre-prepared chemical matrix on a glass tablet for imprints on film, reaching the sensitive layer. In 2001 a new multi-screen version was presented accompanied by live music by Jindrich Biskup.
