About the Item
"Benibana" is a color aquatint, and is one of the prints comprising Jill Moser's "Chroma Six" suite published by Manneken Press in 2019. In each of the "Chroma Six" prints, a dialogue takes place between figure and ground. The gestural, almost animated figure is both expressive and descriptive while the ground is imbued with a deep dimensional space that rivals that of the overlaid figure. The print is a color aquatint, hand printed in an edition of 20. It is available singly or as part of the "Chroma Six" suite. The image size is 17" x 14" with a white border on all sides. The sheet size is 23 1/2" x 20". The print is signed, dated and numbered by the artist in pencil on the front, lower margin.
Jill Moser’s strongly gestural paintings and prints are calculated explosions of calligraphic lines and color. Her oeuvre is largely an exploration of the language of abstraction. She pairs wide and vigorous brushstrokes with fine line work: looping curves, areas of color saturation, and spaces of smoky evanescence. Like Philip Guston, Moser’s broader practice centers on a dialogue between painting and printmaking. “To work on a print is to strip down the constructive parts of an image, slowing down and revealing the performative aspects of its making,” she says. “I’m intrigued by how the process records both the structure and the event and makes the process become visible.” The print allows Moser to introduce a mechanical process that mediates between her hand and the image thereby allowing her to slow down and re-encounter her own gestures.
