Hundertwasser's comment on the work
Light rises from a window in the city. The windows of a big city you can't see the stars because the artificial lights outshine the sun-stars. Man's wish to turn night into day is just one of the many signs of his arrogance in acting against creation. (translated from the brochure: Hundertwasser Genesis Edition, Hanover, 1995)
