‘Micro Cause Moss’ – $120
2024, lino print on handmade paper, 31 x 25cm, framed
‘I am a Danish artist living in Sydney and I mostly get my inspiration from nature’s small creatures and fascinating plant life. I pursue the more analogue methods of crafts and strive to source my materials as sustainably as possible.’
About the work
The print was made using Tiliqua Tiliqua’s press. The frame is second-hand.
The ‘Micro Cause Moss’ print was intended for a zine of the same name, with accompanied poetry by Ella Avni.
It takes all hands
To do that dreamwork
Each seed, each
Star, sown
By the cosmos
Eternal effort
Flows from lake
To lake
Lay on liverworts
Are eons of life
To give or to take
It is printed on green paper made from: egg cartons, philosophy papers on time perception, tea box (strawberry/cucumber flavour), wrapping paper (hearts), Whogivesacrap toilet paper wrappings and wilted flowers from a bouqet.
