12 Multiples Terragraphs (with sand) on canvas mounted on wood in a limited edition of 36 hand signed & numbered // Ouroboros #12 by Günther Uecker is a limited edition terragraph print from 2018, distinguished by its textured surface with sand on canvas, mounted on wood. Part of a series of 36, this piece embodies Uecker’s fascination with repetitive patterns and organic forms. The composition features a large circular shape rendered in earthy, ochre tones with gestural, layered strokes that create a sense of movement and depth. The texture of the sand intensifies the tactile quality of the piece, inviting viewers to explore its physicality. The circular form, reminiscent of the ancient symbol of the Ouroboros—depicting a serpent eating its own tail—suggests themes of continuity, cycles, and self-renewal.

What is kinetic art?
Kinetic art is an international movement that emerged in the 1920s and gained prominence in the 1960s, referring to art that involves both apparent and real motion. It encompasses any medium that includes movement, either relying on actual motion for its effect or being perceived as moving by the viewer. Early examples include canvas paintings designed to create optical illusions of movement. Today, kinetic art often refers to three-dimensional figures and sculptures, such as those operated by machines or those that move naturally. The movement covers a variety of styles and techniques that frequently overlap.
