Binding and String #5, 2019 (details)
In the “Binding and String” series, my metal-binding technique draws inspiration from a Japanese dyeing method, where string prevents corrosion on a metal plate. My process reveals how a plate corrodes over time. Treated plates become so fragile they can create only a few prints. Each print carries slightly different details, generating what I call a Variable Edition. This transformation happens only once and cannot be reversed. I have become fascinated by this randomness and unpredictability, believing that the principles and rules of the universe are hidden there.
