Inkt Vis Inkt 221018 0056 combines Riso-printed imagery, translations of screen-printing techniques and the possibilities of creative code with digital printing. At its heart is the relationship between successive printing technologies and how new print processes can echo old ones. The code-determined palette initially selects a series of colours evenly located round the spectrum, balancing them to human perception. As new content is added, its colour reacts to the section of the image already underneath it. The overall composition is achieved by dividing the space up into layers of frames. Each layer has a different arrangement, also responding to what lies beneath. Inkt Vis Inkt is Dutch for cuttlefish ink (sepia) acknowledging the fundamental role ink has in most print processes. Rich, dark areas of colour are offset by paler or brighter areas giving an almost three-dimensional effect. The hundreds of elements float over the image space, creating rich texture and a sense of depth, with each section giving the eye something different to enjoy. The code for Inkt Vis Inkt was powered by electricity from 100% sustainable sources. All code and visual content is original and created by Alex Russell. Each run of the code creates a unique, one-off artwork. The code can be adjusted to create pieces of any scale. Other substrates are available to commission.
