For the last fourteen years my studio work has been focused on our world waters as news stories of specific water places and issues drive me to respond.
I push pull and wash color and texture against true land/water shapes in my paintings as well as these prints, so that virtually every curving edge represents an actual place where water meets land on the skin of our only earth, with stories to tell.
“DROPS is a 7-year archive-based conceptual art project following the contours of news and of waters on our one fragile planet”:
Each photographic print in this Collection depicts an object… a unique dimensional “imaginary real” water DROP. "Mahakem" (Indonesia) is #265 in THE DROPS COLLECTION of 1000 works created over time with acrylic medium, film, pencil and ink, then placed into a protective 4-inch clear glass Petri dish (with lid). Later, photographer T. Maxwell Wagner removed the glass lid for the photography of each DROP. In some of the prints you might detect a hint of the number engraved into the side of the bottom dish. I consistently enjoy how the bottom Petri dish holding each DROP acts as a frame for the artwork when photographed, while the rim of the dish often reflects color intensities accentuated by the photographer’s light source…just as real water reflects light!
I’m so happy to be partnering with Dolphin Archival Printing in Kansas City for your print orders. Your selections will be printed on Canson Infinity Platine Fibre Rag which offers an exquisite satin surface. Your print will arrive unmounted. There will be an extra 1-inch white border beyond the printed image to facilitate your matting and framing options.
PRICING:
16” x 16” $ 90
22” x 22” $ 140
The final product will measure 18” x 18” with a white border around the 16” x 16” image size.
The final product will measure 24” X 24” with a white border around the 22” x 22” image size.
Most DROPS print images depicted in room settings are 16” x 16” made larger with matting and frames.
Feel free to contact me if you are considering another size or have questions!…Lynn
