Dark circular form centered on a bright yellow background in an abstract etching
Shop › Black Sun

Black Sun

€170.00

Black Sun presents a dark, central form set against a luminous field, establishing a tension between illumination and obscurity. The composition isolates a moment in which clarity is interrupted by an internal shadow.

The work frames this interruption as a structural condition rather than an anomaly. The presence of darkness within a field of light suggests that visibility and obscurity are not separate states, but interdependent aspects of perception and experience.

This contrast extends to the psychological domain. The central form is not treated as absence, but as a zone of internal density—where unresolved elements, latent structures, or unarticulated states remain present but not fully accessible.

The surrounding field maintains a condition of continuity, positioning the dark form as part of an ongoing process rather than a final state. The piece isolates this relationship as a broader principle: that moments of obscurity are embedded within systems of clarity, and that transformation emerges through their interaction.

DETAILS AND DIMENSIONS

This photopolymer intaglio and aquatint etching on three separate copper plates is hand pulled in a limited edition of 4 copies on 300 gram Hahnemuller etching paper. Plate size: 19.9 cm x 28 cm (7.8 X 11 inches) paper size: ~30 cm x 40 cm (~12 X 16 inches). Each print is numbered and signed and sold without a frame.
