"Gehölz" is the german equivalent for the english word "grove". In this pictures, the blurring appears as a form of absence or emptiness that remains hidden from the viewer. The blurring creates image spaces that irritate the gaze and challenge and activate the cognitive system. Osnowski suggests to the viewer a landscape that dissolves, fades or falls, and that the motif can only be recognized in vague and vague outlines. Therefore he uses the possibilities of the woodcut technique in very different ways. As already known from his previous works, he consistently cuts linear codes in different grid sequences manually into the wood: Horizontal and vertical lines in precise, constant intervals form the basic graphic structure. This is a special hand made print on hand scooped 320g Hahnemühle paper.

Stefan Osnowski is a German visual artist using one of the oldest reproduction processes to create an extremely filigree, digitally appearing, ultra-modern aesthetic. He exclusively uses the centuries-old technique of woodblock printing. Osnowski is investigating digital codes to transform it into analog ones to represent phenomenas such as time, movement and spaces in a two dimensional image frame. The transformation of the original image into an abstract binary bar code - 1 or 0 – carved into the wooden panel and printed by hand; gathering a theme or selecting a medium is just as much a part of the concept as physical contact and hand-crafting. He is living and working in Lisbon (Portugal).
