ABOUT MY ARTWORK The series "Habotai, the artwork of silk" has its origin in a 115 square meter acrylic artwork which I created for a building in Hokkaido. It is a collage of photographs I was fortunate to take in several, the most beautiful National Parks in Hokkaido. I got the chance to visit them over a period of three years in all four seasons. Spring, summer, autumn, and winter became one part of the concept for the whole 23 m long original artwork. Often I was asked to show the unseen details of this acrylic artwork, that is now part of the wall, hanging high up in an atrium, and: here are the details, touchable and in a manageable size. I have chosen the material silk because it has all the qualities I love, like translucency, color with beautiful clearness, it is soft, strong and airy at the same time. In our four year testing period, we saw almost none desaturation of color with our material. This silk is natural, high-quality material, you can clean it even by hand washing it without any damage, if needed. PUBLICATION The original acrylic artwork is published in the book "Hokkaido Colours“ http://www.expandbooks.de/01_hokkaido.php UNIQUENESS To create the Habotai-series I found wonderful natural silk. Translucent, combined with the unique hanging, it becomes something special. A fine aluminum round pipe on top makes the hanging almost invisible and an aluminum rod in a lug at the bottom part guarantees a straight hanging. The distance to the wall frames the artwork by the shadow moving with the light situation in the room, a slight projection of the silk-image at the wall gives a soft, beautiful three-dimensional feeling. Hanging hardware is included on demand (no extra charge). In the luxurious case, you want to wear it as a scarf, hand-washing is possible if needed. Ironing level 1, no chemical cleaning. This series has 5 different images and two different sizes. Small-size: 161 H x 32 W x 0.1 cm Large size: 161 H x 63,5 W x 0.1 cm You see the “Edition 406, Spring flowers of Furano", size 161 x 63,5 cm QUALITY Silk white toned, digital print, non-fading, excellent color.

ABOUT THE ARTWORK

ABOUT MY ARTWORK The "Habotai" series originates in a 115 square-meter acrylic artwork I created for the "Nissay Building" in Sapporo, Hokkaido. The artwork is a collage of photographs I was fortunate to take in several of Hokkaido's most beautiful National Parks I visited in all four seasons of the year. Here, I show the unseen details of the artwork. I have chosen natural silk because it has all the qualities I love: it is robust, airy, translucent and the colors come with beautiful clarity. Over the past six years, we experienced almost no desaturation of color. PUBLICATION The original acrylic artwork is published in the book "Hokkaido Colours ". .php UNIQUENESS The unique, almost invisible hanging makes it very special. A slight projection on the wall gives a beautiful three-dimensional feeling. Hanging hardware is included on demand (no extra charge). Possible to wear it as a scarf. Hand-washing if needed. Ironing level 1, no chemical cleaning. This series has five different images and two different sizes. Small-size: 161 H x 32 W x 0.1 cm Large size: 161 H x 63,5 W x 0.1 cm You see the “Edition 406, Spring Flowers of Furano", size 161 x 63,5 cm LIMITED EDITION of 21 plus 3 Artist's Proofs PRODUCTION I take great care and control the process of production myself.

The silk is carefully wrapped in tissue paper, securely rolled up in a reinforced tube, and shipped in a double-paneled sturdy cardboard roll, ready for hanging or wearing. In the unlikely event that the print should arrive damaged, I will do my absolute best to remedy the situation.
