About this work

Almost all of this picture is atmosphere. The stage has already landed and stands on the deck inside a dense fog it made itself, lit from the base so the fog glows and the upper body simply fades out. The painted perimeter line on the deck at the left is the one hard shape in the frame.

The booster is not drawn by an outline. It is held apart from the fog by edge contrast alone, across a very narrow band of midtones, which makes it the frame here most dependent on what it is printed on. Given a surface that compresses those midtones the fog goes flat grey and the stage stops being visible in it.

Materials

Metal
The edge of a Madtag aluminium print, a thin bright line, floating clear of a dark wall.

Nothing between you and the picture.

  • The surface for work that wants light.
  • Colour at full strength; blacks hold their depth.
  • Sealed under gloss: no frame, no glazing.
  • 3 mm aluminium composite, floats clear of the wall.
Arrives flat, hanging system included
Paper
A Madtag print on a sheet of matte fine art paper, curling at one corner to show its thickness.

Hahnemühle, not poster paper.

  • When you want the best.
  • Unframed, it is Hahnemühle: photographs on Photo Rag 308, 100% cotton.
  • Painterly work on German Etching 310, mould-made and textured.
  • Over 300 gsm, printed as a pigment giclée.
Arrives rolled in a Madtag tube
Framed
The corner of a Madtag print in a black wood frame, the sheet flush against the moulding behind acrylic, no mount board.

For the wall you want finished.

  • Framed and finished; no trip to a framer.
  • A different print: 200 gsm coated silk, made as one piece.
  • Black, white or natural wood moulding.
  • Acrylic glazing, no mount board: the sheet fills the frame.
Arrives flat in its frame
Canvas
A Madtag print on stretched canvas with a solid black wrapped edge.

Nothing lost around the corner.

  • Occupies the room rather than hanging flat.
  • Stretched over a 40 mm deep FSC wood frame.
  • No glazing; the weave itself takes the light.
  • The picture stops at the face; edges solid black, always.
