About this artwork
This powerful print, "Trapped in Taffeta," is a rare document of a spontaneous performance by model and performance artist Mariya "Masha" Dimov.
I captured this image in 2019 as Masha expertly transformed several yards of dark fabric into a dramatic "personal prison" through improvised, dancelike gestures. The resulting photograph is a profound study of the tension between confinement and expression. It highlights the compelling visual shapes created… by her body as it struggles within the entangled fabric.
I personally hand-printed this photograph using the Platinum/Palladium process on Revere Platinum paper. This handcrafted technique is vital for preserving the image with its extraordinary tonal depth and luminous subtlety, which elevates a fleeting moment into an enduring work of art.
This piece is a unique, one-of-a-kind print (Edition: 1).
My artistic practice is the result of a lifelong dialogue with visual structure. After graduating from RISD and spending over three decades as a Design Director for institutions like Harry N. Abrams, Oxford University Press, and Random House, I understand the mechanics of any image—composition, balance, and the hierarchy of visual information.
For my digital print-on-demand works, I maintain a strict 'Studio Stopover' protocol to ensure museum-grade quality. Unlike standard print-on-demand services, these pieces are first shipped to my Connecticut studio for personal inspection.
Each work is examined for color fidelity, hand-signed, and numbered by me personally. I then assemble a custom 'Care Kit' for the collector, including a detailed explanation of the work and a Certificate of Authenticity.
This meticulous process adds approximately 7–10 days to the delivery timeline, but it ensures that the work you receive meets the highest professional standards of the fine art market.
