Much Peace, Love and Joy

This installation was created in 2021 with the idea of creating joy with colour in a world sinking due to a pandemic. Using a special letterpress printing process, we printed gradations in vivid colours, which are never the same, and then cut the printed matter into strips by hand to create shapes that are never the same. The work is then composed of a number of these forms. This is a metaphor for all kinds of beings and concepts, and the experience of imagination is depends on the person.
