On Becoming Invisible - photogravure print - The Weekly Edition
For the last few years, I have noticed that I am becoming invisible to a wide swath of the humans I walk amidst on this planet. In the words from a song by my favorite musician " young people don't pay me no mind". Four years ago I began making pictures that reflected my feeling about age. The series is called " As we get older," the photographs are mostly self-portraits and speak about my experiences as a middle-aged man. This hand-pulled photogravure print is made with Charbonnel carbon black, and warm sepia inks with a dash of Charbonnel sanguine ink on Hahnemühle copperplate paper. I printed an edition of 10 numbered prints and 2 A/P prints. Hand-pulled print by Ray Bidegain Limited edition of 10 6.5 x 8.5 inches on an 11x15 sheet. Signed numbered and dated by the artist on the lower front.
