CORDOAMA (EA) Print

This is a special hand printed woodcut in dark Phthalo blue on Hahnemühle paper 240g/m2, numbered and signed as EA (artist edition) in the total edition of 5. This particular work won the 3rd prize of the international LUXEMBOURG ART PRIZE 2024. The quality of the print is excellent, showing all the small details of the lines and developing its special "charm" due to the traces of the printing process. And beautifully appears the depth of the dark phthalo blue color, changing its light and density of the ink by coming closer or walking aside. This is a unique print with artist quality oil-based inks, which have a extremly high pigmentation and therefore a guaranteed color longevity. The work is signed and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. CORDOAMA is a large-scale monochromatic woodcut that depicts a roaring wave towering towards the observer, capturing a fleeting moment at sea when waves break in endless repetition onto the shore, blurring the boundary between land, sea, and sky. The title refers to a location on the west coast of Europe, in southern Portugal, where the artist resided nearby and where the original photograph was taken: Praia do Cordoama.
