RECAST_010 Print

RECAST SERIES This is a series of photographs turned into drawings, and then printed onto paper. The process started when I took photographs of architecture objects, during moments when the light and camera angle transformed them into abstract compositions, after developing the images I worked on each photograph's surface by scratching them, folding-unfolding and finally drawing lines on them. In the process the surface became a ruin. This ruined original was scanned and printed as a limited edition onto fine art Hahnemühle paper. I like calling this process ARCHITECTURE, due to the constant changing of textures until I get to the final object. By using this strategy I explore a new sense of space, depicted in the composition. This new surface covered by a fine thread brings "air" and a sense of lightness to the work. A chaotic and transforming force, which created an atmosphere of illusion. Through the final process,the digital-scanning I also became interested in the fabric of pixels and how I could break the image even further, but keeping a sense of recognition to the abstract composition, accumulating tension and exploring chaos.
