Opis od sprzedawcy
Æ (Spain, b. 1977)
Jiji, Seen Once and Remembered (2025)
Graphic Icon Triptych — Set of 3 Hand-Finished Mixed-Media Artworks
(Refs. 1755 · 1756 · 1757)
This monochrome triptych presents Jiji, the iconic black cat, through a visual language inspired by Japanese woodblock prints, vintage paper ephemera, and archival graphic design. Reduced to essential forms and framed within bold, stamp-like compositions, the familiar character becomes something between symbol, memory, and cultural artifact.
Rather than illustrating a specific story, the three works function as visual icons — fragments of an imagined archive where nostalgia, folklore, and graphic simplicity intersect. Their restrained compositions evoke the atmosphere of forgotten posters, official seals, and printed objects whose original purpose has faded with time.
Executed in deep black and white, the artworks combine strong graphic contrast with richly textured surfaces. Distressed marks, subtle imperfections, and layered tonal variations create the impression of rediscovered prints preserved from another era.
Each artwork is individually hand-finished using spray paint and pastel, ensuring that every set possesses its own unique character. Small variations in texture, surface detail, and tonal balance are an inherent part of the artistic process and contribute to the authenticity of each work.
Together, the three compositions form a quiet meditation on memory, familiarity, and visual permanence, celebrating one of Japan’s most beloved cultural icons through a contemporary monochrome aesthetic.
