About the Item

"My artwork is always in progress. There is not a goal. There is not a category for my work. It is all about enjoying the process of every moment. On a blank sheet of washi calligraphy paper, I make a stroke with the brush as an extension of my arm and hand done in one spontaneous movement. Not necessarily to compose words but just enjoying the feeling of being one with my tools – paper, brush, ink and my spirit. There is no right or wrong. Mistakes do not exist. Too much ink? Too little ink? Another piece of paper can be used to absorb extra ink becoming a beautiful print. All possibilities exist. Calligraphy on paper can be folded with delicate sensitivity by the tips of my fingers. Not necessarily to create an origami form, but just to enjoy looking at the accidental intersection of strokes on the folded paper. These lines overlay each other and the feeling changes. The stroke quality alters meeting other lines in unexpected ways, or just disappear in the folds. Looking through the translucent folded paper at light adds another dimension to the experience of discovery. The lines cast shadows that pose for me. I click the shutter as the strokes are growing and moving – appearing and disappearing. I change the angle or the sun moves. They pose beautifully and are changing constantly. My photographs of origami and calligraphy are a dance of light, line, and the unexpected." - Chaco Terada The overall dimensions, including the frame, are 28 3/4 x 22 3/4 inches. This is edition 2/12.

  • Biltmore water, Still life Black and White Limited edition Photography
    By Luca Artioli
    Located in Miami Beach, FL
    Biltmore water, 2013, by Luca Artioli From the series "Miami Skin" Image size 40 in. H x 40 in. W. Archival Pigment Print Edition of 5 Miami Skin is one of the few “Still photo” project realized only in Black and White. It’s not a traditional collection of photos about the architecture of Miami and Miami Beach. It’s rather a quick journey between its own skin from the Art Deco District to the modern skyline of our days. Stripes, circles, squares, reflections show only some details of important buildings but they all have the power to arise emotions and unexpected shapes and volumes inside us. A final touch is reserved for nature skin from the ocean to the tropical vegetation. You need now to make an effort of imagination to discover and compose all pictures and eventually frame it in your own mind. _________________ Luca Artioli, an artist, poet and photographer recognized in Europe and around the world, has worked for years in the most vital artistic circles of world culture, such as La Scala Opera House in Milan, The Wolfsonian Museum in Miami during Art Basel, Hermès in...
