About the Item

Chromogenic Print face-mounted 3mm matt plexiglas - Unframed. Backed with Dibond and C-channel hanging system + keyhole option. Available on request - 4 week turnaround Edition of 2 + 1AP Paul Snell combines traditional and digital techniques to explore the possibilities of abstraction and minimalism in contemporary photo-media. He lives and works in Launceston, Tasmania. Snell creates small production runs, printing each unique work in an edition of one to three. His process begins by capturing a location or an object on film with a traditional camera. He then digitally “decodes” the visual information present in that image. After reducing and simplifying the colors and forms, he begins an intensive “re-coding” process, during which the reduced formal elements of the work evolve their own self-referential relationships within a new composition. This process blurs the boundary between “taking” and “making” a photograph. When the digital composition is complete, Snell converts it into a Chromogenic print using the Lambda printing system, which allows luminous, vibrant, colorful photographic printing onto metallic paper. The print is then mounted onto Plexiglass. The visual lexicon Snell has developed is informed by the Modernist history of painting, especially minimalism and hard edged abstraction.

    By Chuck Elliott
    Located in Bristol, GB
    Klint / reDux / jdrbnk is a metallic Lambda photographic print, optionally mounted to Plexiglass and Dibond, and fitted with a hidden subframe, ready to install. Work can be supplied unmounted and ready to frame if you’d prefer. The work is individually signed and numbered verso, with both a unique catalogue raisonné number and the edition number for guaranteed authenticity. From an edition of 8 Image size ⋅ 94cm H x 120cm W ⋅ 3 panels . Le Klint Studio is an inspiration to anyone who loves paper folding, contemporary design, and light. So, of course, I couldn’t resist making a series of origami like geometries for a new set of works in 2015. Le Klint Studio, to my mind, are particularly well known for their folded paper pendant shades, contemporary designs which are as beautiful as they are ubiquitous. The image I made is not an identikit line work, more an homage based around some of the origami like folds they use, with the addition of colour glazes and offset transparencies. I've also added a grid like structure of darkly shaded lines and accents, that brings the geometry to life. The first piece I drew, ACDH (acid house...

From an edition of 8 Image size ⋅ 84cm H x 200cm W . Back in the shoegazing years, when I was studying at the old Hornsey School of Art, there was a beautiful surge of guitar fuelled wall of noise bands on the scene, one of whom, Chapterhouse, released a track entitled Breather. It’s a piece that’s stuck with me ever since. Breather was drawn a little while after Eight...
