thanks ! my initial inspiration comes mainly from the pioneer’s plates and the golden record of voyager but there is a bit of arecibo inside indeed :)

here: https://juliencatanese.bigcartel.com i just have one print left of this one available but i wait paper for new repress soon. (Dm for reservation if it’s already sold out)
hahaha, thanks mate ! :D
I really like this! The colors of the ink, paper, frame, and even the wall look great together!
thank a lot :) the frame and the wall come from a mock up I haven’t actually framed it yet :)
haha, meditative is the term yes, it’s very long, more than thirty hours of engraving :) thank you! all my prints are printed by hand. using a sterile sterile and a tablespoon :)
it is a mixture of abstract elements with occult/sci-fi connotations and scientific diagrams or more figurative or symbolic elements. there are elements relating to cosmology, astronomy, topography/geology. the element carbon, its simplified atomic model. a molecule of “chnops” the building blocks of life, a representation of bacterial life and various abstract elements. everything arranged in such a way as to have a homogeneous and graphically coherent egnimatic whole.
thanks ! I do the research using drawings in a notebook, but they are more sketches of elements, of symbols. I create the composition in vector on Adobe Illustrator then using a transfert medium from liquitex , I transfer my printed composition onto my linoleum plate. I then engrave my plate manually. approximately 90 percent of the plaque is hollowed out.
thank you ! yep, these are the metallic inks from canfield color. they are beautiful ! :)
thanks :)
thanks a lot :)
With a title like “Quantum”, those Feynman Diagrams are the chef’s kiss.
hahaha, thanks ! I wanted there to be some substance to it, and not just some quantum bullshit. even if on the whole there’s no real scientific interest.
thanks ! glad you like it :)
That must have been nerve wracking to cut out! All those delicate lines look fantastic.
thank you very much, it’s a bit hard physically on the wrists and knees but mentally no, I’m focused and I can’t see the time passing during the engraving.
thanks mate ! :)
I really like this! Is there a bit missing for the north coordinates? It seems like there’s a space for a decimal, and one of the ticks for the seconds is missing
thanks ! in fact, a dot must have come off when I was cleaning the plate at [57.5"N] a friend of mine said the same thing.
Okay… admit it. You’re cheating by printing white on black, aren’t you?
hahaha, it wouldn’t have been any less complicated !
Thanks :) Here’s a version with captions that should answer all your questions
yes ?
thank you very much !
