Description

“Memento” VE 4/4
8.75 x 12.5″ electrolytic copper etching with drypoint, 2023

This is a limited variable edition of only 4 prints. They are printed in two layers – soft color monoprint and black etched lines on top. Originally printed on high quality Gampi, trimmed and mounted to cotton rag.

This plate has been etched entirely using electricity. Many many hours were put into hand drawing all the tiny details. It has added drypoint shading to add depth and softness to the etched lines. I hope you enjoy it! How many interesting little details can you find?

Memento… pondering the ruthless passage of time, this world a dysfunctional machine that continuously pushes forward. What is my role in it? Harsh realities even find themselves in my sanctuary.
