While still working under Prof. Holger Matthies at the Hochschule der Kuenste in Berlin, the three students designed a poster in memory of the many people that perished in the Holocaust. They silkscreen printed thousands of names on the twelve sheets it takes to completely cover a Litfass column, and purposely choose a water soluble ink that was slowly washed away by rain. The names fade from view as they fade from our memory.

The picture at left is a close-up showing a very small part of a poster where somebody checked the print with his wet finger, leaving his fingerprint as he wiped out a name.
