Impression Description

Frame 529 stands for the frame number I used in the software I modelled the traditional house in and decided on the composition. It is one of the earlier compositions and I used both subtle and harder colour changes between the shades of yellow that almost turns orange. I wanted to create a world in which the house is still standing strong by having a more prominent deeper black with minimal fades. The house is prominent, fading starts from the outside in. I’m not sure if I’d like to witness more.  The impression is quite dynamic and there is a lot to see.  This print has a larger brother with the same colours and composition.

Details:

Type of art:
Unique (1/1) original hand-pulled layered monotype print

Medium:
Acrylic paint on paper printed, pressed and hand-pulled from a gel plate, with manually added lines with black pigmented ink using a pen.

Sizes:
– Paper size A4, 21 × 29.7 cm (8.3 × 11.7 in).
– Art size 20.3 × 25.4 cm (8 × 10 in).

Paper: 100% cotton, acid-free, cold pressed, 300gsm, sourced from the EU. Cold-pressed paper is textured which gives the print a rougher and unique feel.

Authenticity: All art comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. Art is signed, titled and dated below the artwork with pencil.

Series: This print is a part of the Nostalgia series, in which time has stopped while the world has moved on. In my imagination the traditional houses feel vintage, lost, or are already in different worlds than ours. Should we let go of the past? Or not yet?

What is a monotype print?

A monotype is a type of print whereby the printmaker starts with a clean plate the paper is pressed on after the image is created, and ends with a clean plate after the paper is pulled from it. It is, therefore, impossible to create the same image twice as opposed to monoprints. With a monoprint, the plate the paper is pressed on has the image permanently created in it using different techniques. Then it is possible to reproduce identical prints in smaller limited editions (or just only one of course).

All the impressions I make are monotypes. The gel plate is clean so I will have to start anew to create the next impression. This ensures you always will have a unique print that nobody else has.
