Marcel van Eeden combines text and image in his drawings so that text is brought into relation with the motifs, but the visual motifs seem to have no relationship to the events in the texts. In their arrangement, applied with stencils and often integrated as a kind of caption or “speech bubble,” the texts exhibit their proximity to the world of comics. In the series The Archaeologist: The Travels of Oswald Sollmann, K.M. Wiegand, Celia, and The Death of Matheus Boryna, the individual images combine to form an overarching whole.
