Falling Couple Print - Limited Edition of 1

Color Etching, 16 Plates, Japanese Gampi Paper Varnished to a gossamer transparency. Intaglio is my life focus medium. Inspired by a self constructed problem of making nudes of beauty in the intaglio medium, while using a 'Tongue in cheek humor' towards the etching media. The print was etched and printed by me in my studio. Original drawing and printing was done in 1998 with my series "Falling Figures" and "Body Parts". The printings were stopped after the 9/11tradgedy due to my feeling that they became inappropriate. Continuation of printing this image began in 2007. Inspired by a self constructed problem of using an ironic use of customs and/or traditions normally associated with etchings; For example: the assemblage of layers of unattached separately printed transparent papers instead of multiple plate registration on one piece of paper, thus destroying any chance of true registration of colors; oversized image instead of hand held intimate print, plates unpolished, blank, unbeveled nor dried flat and thus having an odd effect on the print paper surface; signature signed on the image and dates of printing used instead of edition numbers which allows for multiple experiments of printing Edition is 25 unique images. numbers are represented by publishing date, 1998-2017.
