WATER, WOOD, GROWTH
DESCRIPTION
Acrylic on canvas in custom natural float frame | 2023
Up and Up, 步步高升 (bù bù gāo shēng in Mandarin), the new series of paintings from artist AOTH is a nod to vernal direction—to the start of spring, and the excitement of starting something new. In creating these ethereal new works, AOTH let her mind and body do the work, letting trauma and emotion flow freely then release onto the canvas. The series mirrors the highs and lows the artist had experienced in the time prior to creating these works. Through the cathartic act of creation, the end result is a series that embodies togetherness and celebration, while AOTH herself felt like a new person all over again—lighter, freer, and ready to conquer the year ahead. It was only in the act of honest feeling that she was able to process her previous struggles and start the year wishing everyone "恭喜发财 (gōng xǐ fā cái in Mandarin), prosperity and good fortune.”

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.
AOTH
AOTH
Recently featured in Apartment Therapy and Vogue Italia, multidisciplinary artist AOTH utilizes her background in design and architecture to create her dream-like paintings. AOTH’s practice draws on traditions of balance present in Feng Shui. Her gestural, fluid works consider their relationship with the angular, architectural space of both the canvas and the rooms which surround them.
