Autumn Springs is a fascinating letterpress painting that intrigues both technically and visually. This work has been created using an artisanal printing technique in which actual strings have been used as the printing form. Each colour area is printed separately in a separate print run - in this case, six colours, plus the framing frame - giving the work a rich layering and tactile texture.
Within the black rectangle, a play of lines reminiscent of roots unfolds. Most of the shapes are executed in shades of black and grey, which together form a calm, rhythmic composition, evoking a sense of structure and stillness. One group of lines deviates strikingly: in warm orange and yellow tones, a vibrant beam flows downwards. This sparkling colour trap suggests movement, change or perhaps even rebellion within a rigid system.
The combination of natural materials, repetition and unexpected use of colour makes Autumn Springs a contemplative work that feels both abstract and personal. Perfect for modern interiors seeking an artwork with depth and story.
