Each letter is a bit of a drawing. When the letters join into a word, they can even weave a small pictorial composition. The suggestive female body emphasizes plump shapes in a pose from which one can keep "guessing" an emotion for a long time.

In several works, Koller tried to connect the concept and the representation of what it expresses. He thus created a kind of conceptual calligram and evoked "tension between the work of art and reality".
