Negative

(100 Years after Malevich) "Trying desperately to free art from the dead weight of the real world, I took refuge in the form of the (black) square. Black makes it possible to negate place, action, time or history."

By reproducing the iconic 10 x 8 negative at actual size in the form of a photopolymer gravure print, ‘Negative’ is a playful take the idea of photography as printed surface and nostalgia for its traditional values and physical processes. A mourning of loss and a view of an unknown future.
