Handmade Toyobo-print chine-collé
I am grateful to have been part of a wonderful exhibition at the end of last year, which was so confusing. Because of the constant new editions, it was not easy for the gallery owners of the ARTESPACE GALLERY MUNICH to realize the plan of an exhibition during the Christmas season 2020. In the end, however, the great efforts were more than worth it.
A big thank you also goes to Eric Levert from the Netherlands. Despite the time constraints, this master of printing managed to refine my works for the exhibition into breathtaking Toyobo-prints Chine-Collé within a few days, thus creating two exclusive editions.
But, what is a Toyobo Print? It is a special printmaking technique where a digital file is exposed on a light-sensitive layer. The image is then washed out in water. The plate is a negative and can then be printed as a (positive) etching in circulation. It gives deep dark prints with a beautiful texture. With the ancient Chine-collé technique the image is transferred onto a surface that is bonded onto a heavier support in the printing process. Ultra thin Japanese paper pasted on the heavy cotton etching paper gives the artwork its beautiful color. I love this kind of printing technique. It gives a beautiful uniqueness to each image of an edition.
Ein wenig Freude.
Freudenpaket.
Da fällt mir doch glatt auf, dass Gefühle nicht nur bedrückend sein müssen!
Ich sichte Bilder. Zwei Jahre alt. Es gibt wirklich einen richtigen Weihnachtsmarkt (erinnert sich jemand?). Nach dem Besuch des "weihnachtlichen Märchenmarktes in Wuppertal verschlägt es uns noch in eine Tiefgarage. Immerhin gilt es, das Auto abzuholen.
Langweilige gelbe Säulen umgeben uns. Starrer Beton. Tote Kulisse. Aber dann kommt Daria. Auto abholen ist gleich. Jetzt ist shooten angesagt. Daria ist ein Freudenpaket. Sie zeigt, dass es keiner besonderen Umgebung bedarf, Spaß auszustrahlen.
Unser Shooting hat viele Ergebnisse. Es entstehen starke Bilder. Aber die kommen vielleicht ein anderes Mal. Diesmal ist starke Freude angesagt. Dürfen es einmal die nicht "eigentlichen" Shootingbilder sein? Hier sind sie!

Wir haben lange gewartet bis es endlich gepasst hat. Ein kaltes, kurzes Shooting.

Alezia in the hall
One day with Alezia some time ago. We visited the old Homburger Papermill. A well known location near Cologne wich can be used for shoots but also for events. It was later in fall so the wedding-season was over and the event-hall was open for some pictures. We used the opportunity and the light. At this time Alezia wanted only covered act, so it was a challenge for me to find posings, perspectives and shadows to cover what has to be covered.
