Is that all? Is this life?
Cyanotype on fabric - analogue photography
At some point we all ask ourselves the question: Is this all there is? Is this life?
The question highlights the finite nature of existence. The human being can be seen as a construct. One part supports the other. Together they form a unity. The physicality serves as a cloak and protects the inside from external gaze.
Humans take on different roles in their lives. These roles are part of us. Like travellers, they move through our lives and fill us with emotions - stormy or gentle, loud or quiet, light or dark.
The colour blue often suggests infinity in our perception and thus stands as an antithesis to this question. The cyanotype on fabric - flowing soft - like a protective cloak. Consisting of 12 individual parts sewn into each other. 12 parts that support each other and create a unique whole.
Cyanotype is an over 175-year-old photographic printing process. Each image, each individual part of the artwork is unique. Every brush stroke of the photochemistry, every exposure of a part of the picture has its own life. No two are alike. This is a limited work.
