CIRCUIT is made specially for Aamanns-Copenhagen in New York. It will hang there for 4 months starting December 2012. The artwork consists of four standard size (96”x48”) OSB strand boards. OSBs are typically used as temporary fences for construction sights. Their rough surface are due to the pieces of compressed wood, creating a unique surface that contributes to the final piece. The four boards are composed to form a square (144”x144”), connecting the figures into a circle that creates a sense of movement within the square. A square hole in the middle (48”x48”) forces the figures to the outer edges. The art itself is milled out from the boards. This gave Peter an opportunity to create additional artwork derived from the original piece. Using the old technique of letter pressing, he made two full prints and five individual extracts onto canvas. A few of the smaller canvas pieces are exhibited with the original piece. The reverse imprints onto canvas create a dialog between them and the original.Note: Canvas art are made with lithographic ink on pure cotton canvas and produced in collaboration with “Det Grafiske Værksted” in Hjørring, Denmark. |

The OSB board has to be cleaned after the printing. A suttle white is painting inbetween the figures to enhance the image | ||
All OSB boards are carefully packed individually |
|||
Next we had to build a transportation box. | |||
Bounce absorbing material is applied | The goods are inside and sealed with plastic
