About the Item
"The Concept of Symmetry" is a print of an oil painting on canvas by Amy Cheng. It belongs to a Mandala Series she produced in the 2010's. Her work is not religious or overtly spiritual, but they invite contemplation. The composition of this artwork is symmetrical. The white convex lace-like center half-sphere is presented as semi-transparent covered by an elaborate ornamented spherical structure.The the image references both the cosmic and the cellular. It is about the largeness of life, as much as it is about the the specificity of things like embroidered lace, filigreed gold, and more. The size of the image is 23" H x 38" H. The image is surrounded by a 3"-wide white border all around. This white space should be preserved (and can be covered by a matte during framing) in order to give the image breathing room. The print uses archival pigment print on Moab Entrada Natural, 100% rag fine art paper, 290 gsm, acid free. Unframed it is shipped rolled up in a tube.

- "A Lightness of Being, " limited edition print of an oil painting by Amy ChengBy Amy ChengLocated in New York, NY"A Lightness of Being" is a limited edition 0f 30 pigment prints of an oil painting on canvas by Amy Cheng. It is part of a Mandala series, a group of works that rely on a visual vocabulary such circles, spheres, transparency, layering, pattern, repetition, and ornamentation. Sumptuous, intricate, ornamented, these prints are richly referential — they call to mind a range of associations from mandalas, the cosmos, cells, lace, brocade and more. The artist feels aligned with the long history of geometric and floral ornamentation the Far Eastern, Middle Eastern, and European craftsmen have long employed. They did so with the implicit understanding that pattern and repetition, which are endemic in nature, are primal in their rhythmic connection to the human nervous system. The artist identifies herself with the long tradition of visual artists interested in notions of cosmology. The artist Thomas Lyon Mills describes the Mandala painting...Category

- Klint / reDux / acdhBy Chuck ElliottLocated in Bristol, GBKlint / reDux / acdh is a ten colour archival pigment print on 305gsm, 100% cotton, Hahnemühle fine art paper. The work can be supplied unframed, or framed and ready to hang. I tend to use fairly minimal glazed and painted tulipwood frames, and set the work ‘straight in’ under the fillets, without a window mount. If you’d like to discuss other framing choices to suit your space please do get in touch. Individually signed and numbered From an edition of 48 prints, plus 4 APs Image size ⋅ 50.8cm H x 66cm W Sheet size ⋅ 65cm H x 80cm W . Le Klint Studio is an inspiration to anyone who loves paper folding, contemporary design, and light. So, of course, I couldn’t resist making a series of origami like geometries for a new set of works on paper in 2015. Le Klint Studio, to my mind, are particularly well known for their folded paper pendant shades, contemporary designs which are as beautiful as they are ubiquitous. The image I made is not an identikit line work, more an homage based around some of the origami like folds they use, with the addition of colour glazes and offset transparencies. I've also added a grid like structure of darkly shaded lines and accents, that brings the geometry to life. The first piece I drew, ACDH (acid house...Category
