About this artwork
This new series of etchings is a continuation of my previous series "the invisible cities", inspired by the novel by Italo Calvino.
Both series are not about cities in themselves but on an underlying theme.
In the first series it is the thinking and ways of life of the people who form a city.
In this case it is about change and the time that elapses.
In these etchings, different times can be seen in one image: past, present… and future.
To create this image I use multiple etching plates that I print over each other. I made a number of plates specially for this, but I also use plates from previous series.
This creates very complex compositions. In these etchings you can look through the cities and buildings, giving you the impression that the different times coincide.
