During the 50's Hann Trier began to paint in the style he maintained through his whole later work: Holding in each hand a brush, he led them across the picture's surface in his so-called "choreographic brushstrokes" corresponding to each other at the same time. By these means he emphasized the process of painting and created arabesque-like soul landscapes with mostly honeycombed structures and harmonious color processes.
