Brad Brown
'Okina #23

2012

About the Item

Color monotype The ‘okina is the Hawaiian representation of the glottal stop. It is a separation of doubles. The monotypes in the ‘Okina series are doubles; the prints are divided into upper and lower halves. Brown worked on two plates simultaneously. Sometimes the images on the plates were mark-for-mark copies of one another; other times one image was a riff or a variation on the other. The resulting image was hidden until the upper and lower plates were run though the press. The plates met in the center of the page in the seam, or joint. Where the plates met at the joint there was a kiss; this became literally the crux of the matter.

Those dark shapes can be read as either positive/foreground space (body silhouettes or curtains) or as negative space that frames a central image (landscapes, columns, creatures). Similarly, the white lines and dots...
