In Franzen’s art, the performative act of creation is of a great importance itself - it becomes a ritual bridging the creator and observer, life and death, beginning and end, god and humans, existence and non-existence.

One Line series transmits a similar message. A single line is basic sequence of every drawing and, therefore, the epitome of creative energy channelled into one, seemingly meaningless, movement. The stroke cuts across the canvas, divides its eternal oneness and hence gives origin to dualism.

Each line one breath. The linear structure is based upon the human-line algorithm. The works induce both mechanical and organic connotations: the quasi-automatic pattern (each line is a reflection of the previous one) is dictated by the breathing rate. The irregularities within the structure result from the externalisation of artist’s emotions.
