The Darkness Between The Stars

a note from the artist

The feeling of being summoned is a lot like that of being chased. It's a feeling of connection to something mysterious with intent toward you. I feel that intent, sometimes, when the stars send spears though a broken sky.  I feel the stars themselves sometimes, when I clear my mind and match my intent to the universe’s will toward me. I feel the gravity of the stars pull on me from center mass, like a gentle tugging from my diaphragm, a hook in my soul, lifting me up. Then I break contact. I allow my mind to flood and weigh my soles to the cold ground. The truth is that the darkness between the stars does frightens me, inspiring a sort of pleasurable terror when I contemplate it.

Edition of 12
21x36”

About the prints: I print on a premium substrate that is unparalleled in depth and luminosity. The material refracts light in such a way that light travels laterally through the paper as well as reflects to the audience creating a brilliant effect that many mistake to be rear illumination. Each print is then face mounted to acrylic and sandwiched to a protective backing. The artwork is then framed or a recessed mount is added to the back to float on the wall. I offer Tabacchino and other handmade framing options. Darkness is only available as a 21"x36" piece. Below are examples in 4” frames with and without liners. More arrangements are available. Liners are available in Black, White, Beige. See FRAMES in the menu above for more frames and liner options.
