Sweeping curves and feathered contours move outward in rhythmic succession, creating a composition that feels intentional yet celebratory. The print captures the sensation of first light, with coral and gold tones unfurling like a slow breath at dawn. Produced through the layered techniques of sugar lift, etching, and aquatint, and hand-painted by Beatriz Sobrado Samano, each impression carries delicate variations. At its centre, Kenojuak Ashevak’s imagery shines with unmistakable poise, realized in collaboration with master printer Paul Machnik. With only twenty-five impressions in the edition, each work holds an aura of rarity and individuality.Provenance
