Reviving Twilight | Seattle

a note from the artist

Reviving Twilight | Seattle is a part of an urban night sky art installation idea I thought of in late 2014. Inspired by the article "The Death of Twilight" (Nat Geo or Time) I read years ago, the work of Thierry Cohen, & a dream I had of the Milky Way painted in glow paint on the face of a bluff. I want to share what we are losing, lumen by lumen, as we urbanize. The goal is to place art installations in urban areas that show the night sky from that exact location as if the city went dark. 

Edition of 50

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. Available starting  20”x40” 30”60” 36”x72” 40”x80” 48”x96” and custom sizes. 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.
