August 3rd 2012


I was recently commissioned by the owners of Mjölk to create a print design for an upcoming exhibition they're having with renowned Japanese designer, Oji Masanori.  Masanori will be in attendance, as well as a number of the craftspeople that help produce the designs he's created; including Studio Prepa, (glass studio), and woodworkers from Asahikawa.


For the design of the print, I used some of Masanori's most well known designs to create a small collection of items in brass, wood and porcelain.  This is one of my favourite projects that I've done in the last while, but it was very easy to work with such beautiful designs as subjects!  The limited edition, (of 25), giclée print is 17" x 22" and printed on archival paper with archival inks, and will be available at the exhibition opening at Mjölk on August 11-12, 2012.

    You did a great job! We sell some of his designs in our shop and you captured them beautifully. I seriously thought this was a photo from far away, but love painterly quality as I got a closer look.
