Head In The Clouds – A3 – Bright Blue

WHAT IS LINOPRINT? 
Linoprinting is a method of block printing, where the design is carved by hand into a piece of linoleum. When the design has been carved, printmaking ink is rolled onto the linoleum with a brayer. Lastly, the design is transferred to paper either by manually pressing or with a printing press. Linoprinting creates unique artwork, where every print in an edition will be slightly different due to the printing process.

SPACE(Y) series:
The space(y) series is a visual rendition of sayings, wordplay, and thoughtful sentiments. It combines elements of the vast outer space and weather-phenomena with the beautiful, nude, feminine form, and mesmerizing colours. From the straight forward “Head In The Clouds” to the saying with a (sweet) twist; “My World Revolves Around You”, the titles of the pieces are the first thought by the artist – usually from popular sayings – followed by a proces to create sweet imagery, which accurately reflects the titles.

All prints in the space(y) series are handprinted, limited edition linoprints made by artist and printmaker Viveca Johansen.
