This large size paper cut-out is the culmination of several years of work in the medium on a smaller scale, for ceramics, artist’s books, posters, etc. The work is framed according to archival standards, with ultra-violet screen glazing for protection. The wood frame is unique and of high quality with a profile that is 10 cm wide and 4,5 cm thick, from solid old-growth cherry wood, black matte lacquered.
The Mandalas were originally created for a board game included as an interactive project in the Drawing Papers 54 publication on the occasion of the Geometry of Paradox exhibition at The Drawing Center in New York. The project culminated in the Mandala Paper Cut-Outs as the basis for the Mandala Memory matching game available on iPad and iPhone.
1955 Athens, Greece
Zoe Keramea explores enfolded surfaces using sculpture, printmaking, drawing and ceramics.
She was born in Athens in 1955 and received a Meisterschülerin degree from the Universität der Künste Berlin in 1981.
She was awarded a Fulbright Grant in 1989 to work on her printmaking project "Two Stage Intaglio Matrix Prints - Zoetypes" in New York.
Zoetype is a printmaking process that involves the transfer of images from a worked metal plate (etching, aquatint, sugarlift etc.) on to the paper, via a woven cloth matrix, either directly or by retransfer on to a second metal plate. This process gives the print a much greater range of tonal and textural effect. The matrix can give a sharp relief with either its printed or unprinted side or the two maybe used in combination.
