Kakita Paper 300g, Brass Powder in Medium, Overprinted with Silkscreen Black and treated with an acetic acid mixture. Each edition is unique.

N.B. This edition is currently not available for sale.

Each standard edition includes a set of 10 unsigned prints, a signed & numbered colophon sheet, and a custom-made box. The set of images is screen-printed by hand onto a bed of brass powder suspended in medium. When the artist applies glacial acetic acid to the surface of the print, the resulting oxidation reaction generates a unique pattern, thereby altering the image as a function of chance. The chemical reaction is influenced by atmospheric conditions, such as oxygen levels, humidity, temperature, or pollutants in the air. Due to the difficulty and labor-intensiveness of producing each edition, the total edition size has been reduced from 250 to 140.

Standard Edition: $800 The custom box of the standard edition is made from wood, acrylic, magnets, and embellished with laser engraving. 

Display Case Edition: The custom box of the standard edition is made from wood, acrylic, magnets, and embellished with laser engraving. This version is sold out.
