Brands has two major themes: eternal movement and the immensity of the cosmos. Reality is an illusion for him. 'It's a delight to work with color. To be able to completely let go in that space. I always try to paint as if it were blown there. I also can't intellectually explain why I paint a certain color in a particular place. (...) Our vulnerability is our highest asset. Softness impresses me more than coldness.'
