Poetics of Emptiness 

Limited edition of max 250 copies – made-to-order. Exclusively available on a pre-order basis.

This item will be available to ship in June. Pre orders must be placed before May 22nd.


The forthcoming special edition no. 13 “Poetics of Emptiness” - scheduled for release in June- is centered around the unique ability of paper as medium to convey a compelling experience of emptiness and meaning, absence and presence, through a delicate interplay of light, shadow and ink on a textured surface – the same contours along which the entire history of mankind can be traced back for thousands of years... and very unlike the smooth, synthetic digital surface which can never express positive and sublime nothingness.

Among philosophical meditations on the 8 fundamental layers of emptiness, and complimentary image series, the sculptural portfolio edition will feature 8 original reproductions of paper works from international artists that each encapsulate the subtle presence of emptiness through manual techniques of pressing, folding, embossing and perforations along with a broad palette of specialized off-set prints.

Featured Artists : Kenya Hara, Rogan Brown, Amanda Betz, Kazimir Malevich, Miho Kajioka, Jo Baer, Ronan Bouroullec, Yoshio Ikezaki, Kate MccGwire, Henrik Saxgren, Paolo Galgani, Hasagawa Tohaku, Jack Whitten, J.M.W. Turner and more

The sculptural limited edition will be predominantly hand crafted and released in a maximum edition of 250 copies – all on a made-to-order basis.
