city view, 2024

​

This print is part of a series that examines different urban views by focusing on the pathways and structures that run through the landscape of a city. The engraved drawing uses repeated patterns to explore connections and disconnections between different parts of a city. The work poses questions about sustainability in urban life by using everyday materials as printing matter. The collaged plate is composed of 36 milk cartons whose texture emulates architectural elements. Combining the previously discarded material into large-scale panels offers new modes of seeing into the nooks and niches of the urban environment. I work with the corners that the materials introduce into the drawing and explore what ideas and stories are hidden in them. ​multi-plate collagraphy on milk cartons, printed in black on Hahnemühle paper, 121cm x 128cm

city view #3

​

This multiplate print engages with the view through the windows at the studio from where I am looking at Jerusalem's Southern parts in which the Palestinian neighborhood of Beit Safafa intersects with the Israeli settlement of GIva HaMatos. The print combines materials purchased and collected in this neighborhood to reflect on the intermingling of lives and the connections and disconnections that are visible in the architecture, landscape, and atmosphere. The details are carved into milk cartons that were brought to the studio by other artists. In the process of carving and printing, I explored the niches and relations of people and place, the material and reflections. The 6 printed panels are assembled into a large depiction of the process and product of this engagement, inviting the viewer to find the stories that are hidden in the streets.​plate materials: 40 cartons, packing tape, masking tape, gaffa tape, isolation tape, gluepaper: Fabriano Rosaspina, 220g, warm black ink​size: 147cm x 138 cm
