Cyanotype 14
Original 8x10 cyanotype in a 12 x16 frame, ready to hang.
In these cyanotypes artist Ellen Mote layers abstractions of the female form, in a sheer manner nodding to her own feelings of invisibility as a woman and a mother. Ellen challenges our pursuit of perfection and the impossibility of the expectation with symmetrical, but imperfect, lines and shapes.
Cyanotypes are a photographic printing process made by exposing paper with a light-sensitizing chemical. The word cyanotype was derived from the Greek work “cyan” which means “dark-blue impression.”
Each print is one of a kind.
Q: Why are these only being sold framed?
A: Art works on paper must be framed to be displayed. For this reason, I wanted you, the collector, to be able to display the work immediately, without the delay of waiting for the framing. Framing also elevates art and makes it look complete.
I chose a handmade solid wood, super high quality frame for this piece to add warmth and balance to the piece.
