About the Item

I have always loved airplanes and the freedom they offer since I started flying airplanes at the age of 16. This former MIT book has the pages removed and the endpaper with the stamping was used to simulate a paper airplane and acrylic and raw paper was used to make the horizon gauge. Aerology for Pilots - abstract book art mixed media in handmade frame Acrylic on paper book cover Includes artist’s handmade white oak wood frame, museum glass face Frame size 18” x 14.5” x 2” Book published in 1940 Includes certificate of authenticity and hanging hardware 2021 Original work All frames/ panels are made from top quality solid lumber hand selected by the artist at a local lumber yard and hand made by the artist in his Miami studio. Custom commissions are available to suit your needs with size and color options. A free service the artist offers is to photoshop the art into an image of your space for client presentations, for more info on this or commissions reach out through the contact number on 1stDibs. About the Collection - P.R.O.U.N. The Works on Paper Series (2020-2021) exposes the predictability of our pre-pandemic routines, like a book we know cover to cover. And much like the pages of these books, everything normal has been pulled out of our hands. These works give language to the feelings of hope we may struggle to find and remind us of how we have grown. Now, inside is a new story using pops of color that uplift and symbolize brighter days ahead. The artist hopes that we remain positive while reflecting inward and not burning through this time but soak it in, grow from it, and have these pieces be a reminder that hope begins in the dark.
