Voyage Libra
DESCRIPTION
Screen print on Japanese Izumi paper with gloss varnish and pearl ink | 2018
Adorned with gloss varnish and gold ink, the new prints from Tokyo-based Ewelina Skowronska were created during one very hot Tokyo summer as the artist experimented with new ways to work. Across the series, sensual curves of the female form lounge in a number of poses, crisp hues mingling with muted ones as curved lines highlight selected details. In the artist’s native language, Polish, “Upaly” means “heat,” and a state of very hot weather that lasts a longer period of time. It can also describe a state of mind that is filled with boiling emotions and unspoken words. Across this series, the figures seem to languish in an invisible wave of heightened temperature and emotion as Skowronska’s expansive composition and cooling colors offer a brief respite from the heat.

Framing & Mounting
Framing
Our frames are produced from the best quality wood, primarily from Italy. Each is custom cut and assembled by hand to fit your art. Hanging hardware included!
THIN GALLERY FRAME
This modern profile was designed for artists and photographers. Narrow on the front and deep on the sides, our slim mouldings provide a clean, sharp frame for your art, and allows all focus to be on your gorgeous work.
3/4" wide; 1 1/8" deep
UV - PROTECTIVE ACRYLIC
Our acrylic is more expensive than glass, but we use it because it’s clearer, far more impact resistant, and protects your art against UV rays. Framing-grade acrylic has become a new standard in framing because of its “clear” benefits.
THE FULL BLEED
Works are framed flush with the edge of your print without a mat. Request border modifications and spacers, which keep the work from touching the glass.
THE MAT
Adds a white core mat with a bevel cut opening to the edge of your print. If your work has a signature or edition numbering, we will automatically mat around it unless otherwise specified.
We use 4-ply, conservation-grade, acid-free mat board. We match whites and off-whites to your exact piece. Acid-free materials protect your art from yellowing or becoming brittle.
THE FLOAT
Floating a piece allows for a full view of the face and sides of the artwork. Floating is recommended for original drawings and paintings or any piece produced on specially trimmed paper.
