Details

In conjunction with Heather Day’s solo exhibition Night Crackle (July - August 2022) at Louis Buhl & Co., the artist has produced a series of monoprints with Farrington Press, located in Southern California’s High Desert. Over the course of a few months, she worked closely with master printer Kyle Simon at the off-grid, solar powered mountain print shop to employ various techniques in the creation of the work. Day composed her paintings on cherry wood and steel matrices, which were then printed onto Saunders Waterford paper using 200 tons of pressure (about half the amount of pressure used to create a diamond). Similar to Day’s paintings, many of the prints were dissected and re-assembled using bookbinding techniques to build new compositions, the final result existing as multiple works within one.
