Vhils 'Periferia Uniforme' Print Release




Vhils 'Periferia Uniforme' Edition of 200 Size: 50 x 70 cm £275 Each Vhils 'Periferia Uniforme' Edition of 200 Size: 50 x 70 cm £275 Each

PicturesOnWalls has released a new print today from my favorite Portuguese, artist Vhils. This print is by far my favourite from his releases. This beauty is called 'Periferia Uniforme' it is a 50 x 70 cm multilayered print using drawing inks, bleach, screenprint inks and varnish with an edition size of 200 for £275 each. Our man from Lisbon has produced his most technically ambitious prints so far. Layers of inks, bleach and more ink makes each print unique. "The process took over 200 bottles of ink, several family sized tubs of Domestos, destroyed twelve silk screens and brought Vhils out in a nasty rash."

Hajime Sorayama 'Sexy Robot' Print




Hajime Sorayama Print Size: 70 x 100 cm €250 Each Hajime Sorayama Print Size: 70 x 100 cm €250 Each

Since I am on the top of Hajime Sorayama vibe, check out this stunning print by him available at Colette. "The spotlight is on cult Japanese artist, Hajime Sorayama this limited edition print, exclusive to colette. In the late 1990's, Sorayama was approached by the Sony Corporation to design an organic robotic form. It became the famous "AIBO" dog, now in the collection of the MOMA and then Smithsonian Institute of Technology. Intrigued by the effects of light on various metallic surfaces, and always ready for challenges to his technique and imagination, he began to produce a series of female robotic figures in the late 1970's; anatomically correct in form, but appearing to have been fashioned of molten silver. The term "sexy robot" was coined to describe them." These prints are 70 x 100 cm and cost €250 each.

Jessica Eaton 'Filter Samples' Print Release

20 X 200's Featuring Jessica Eaton 'Filter Samples' 20 X 200's Featuring Jessica Eaton 'Filter Samples'

20x200's release this week is Jessica Eaton's 'Filter Samples' documents the means used to create one of many attempts to construct fictional rainbows. Hundreds of swatches from Lee Filter sample packs were arranged on the window, by spectral wave transmission, to turn my living room into a ROYGBIV light box. My artistic practice is focused on the medium of photography and potentially, all lens-based imaging. Growing out of an initial interest in constructed photographs, my current projects aim to explore the potential of truth, illusion, contingency and the physical and perceptual properties of light, time and space. In order to structure these phenomena into the plane of the photograph, as well as to organize and plan the use of the camera and lenses' technical impositions, I commonly borrow strategies from both the scientific method and various approaches in music. Specifically, a number of works have been constructed by an approach inspired by John Zorn’s “game piece” concept of experimental music. My explorations often take inspiration from the increasing possibilities of digital imaging as well. Deconstructing these processes in an analogue form results in photographs that are complex in their reading, resting somewhere, uncomfortably, between both digital imaging and painting. It is my goal for the resultant photographs—"tests" as I often call them—to be a rich visual experience and to offer insight into both the malleability of perceptual reality and the construction of meaning regarding our shift into an increasingly hyper-real or digital world. This print comes in various sizes and prices, check their site HERE!
