This untitled piece from around 1991 exemplifies Karel Martens’s commitment to exploring typography beyond mere communication, treating letters as visual elements with texture, color, and form. Using printmaking techniques, Martens transforms found or fragmented letterforms into abstract, painterly compositions that challenge traditional notions of legibility and design hierarchy, making the work both a conceptual and tactile investigation of graphic language.
