Kolíbal focused on the questions of uncertainty, illusion and temporality throughout the different stages of his work. Lines, contrast, work with space and surfaces appear dominantly in his work. I wanted to use the potential of these dominant features in my own work. However, I want to enrich everything with a certain playfulness, simplicity and colorfulness in a topic that would be telling of myself but also of the questions Kolíbal asked. Everything connects itself in the final results of this work and two objects that appear similar but are in truth totally different were created. One object closest to that of Kolíbal with its simplicity and the other closest to myself with its wildness. With the use of a graphic design that originated as a layout of a laser device I continued in the work of Kolíbal as a graphic designer. He too often transformed his graphic work into objects. I named my work ''Transportation'' for the reason, that the individually placed components moving away from each other represent a transformation that is transported with thin lines. The placement of the objects on a horizontal line and away from the wall should evoke levitation and the lightness and elegance connected to it. The placement of the objects above each other help with their easy identification, connectedness and relatedness.
