Series of etchings "Conversation", which explores the spiritual meaning of letters.
It' s a sort of silent dialogue between the elements and the paper hosting them. I also think that letters enhance the idea of "saying something", a communication on a subtle level. We can experience a visual reading and conversation.
BEATRIZ MAHAN
Viña del Mar, Chile 1973
My interest for all kind of graphic compositions and craftsmanship was born during my Graphic Design studies.
After several years working as a designer and other fields, I moved to Barcelona where I maintained this artistic inclination taking part in various courses and workshops, until one day I run into a printmaking studio and, without explanation, the ink smell, those bright papers and those ancient machines, made me feel at home.
I currently develop my printmaking work at my private studio and also I experiment with other self-taught artistic techniques.
