Custom-shaped multi-process print composed of 4 layers of die cut 300gsm Gmund grey paper, individually printed using a digital UV flatbed printer, mounted on 4 ply Rising Museum board and finished with metallic foil details.
Galaxia II translates the orthogonal language of pioneering Neo-Geo painter Peter Halley into an edition of intricate, low relief prints.
4 individual layers are printed using vibrant UV inks and finished with metallic foil details, including a narrow gold border conceived to echo the gilded surround of a medieval altar. Rectangular 'cells' connected by circuit board-esque 'conduits' nod to the rigid structures which underpin society – and life within it.
The innovative technique results from Halley's close collaboration with a world-leading print studio. "As an artist, I think of myself as a composer, and the printmaker as the conductor of the orchestra."
