Each letter is a bit of a drawing. When the letters join into a word, they can even weave a small pictorial composition. The "written" landscape is shaped by hills, slopes and valleys. It contains many nooks and crannies that invite closer examination.

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".
