Pentimento XXI — Silverpoint continues the series' inquiry into the passage between generative image and material presence. A figure emerges from a pale grey ground in the faintest register of mark-making — a dancer drawn almost entirely in silver filament, her body barely distinguished from the paper that carries her. The tutu opens in a radiating web of fine lines, the torso dissolves upward into a shadow of a head, and a single thread descends from the skirt like a plumb line. The image recalls the discipline of silverpoint: a medium that cannot be erased, where every mark is a permanent decision. Printed on acrylic glass, the work acquires the depth the digital origin cannot hold: the silver filament catches light, the warm grey ground recedes into space, and the first gesture remains visible beneath the matter that now carries it.

An invitation to look slowly

These works are designed to reward repeated viewing. They change as you move. They hold traces of their making. They ask you to notice the difference between an image that lives on a screen and an image that has entered matter.

Printing & Shipping. Acrylic glass and paper editions are produced by WhiteWall, a master fine-art lab based in Germany, and shipped worldwide. Each work carries the artist's digital signature. A signed and dated Certificate of Authenticity is available on request, issued by the artist via email and verified against your order receipt. Etchings are hand-pulled in the studio on the artist's press and shipped directly by the artist.

About the work. Each piece in the Pentimento series begins as a digital composition generated through a custom-trained model and is translated into a physical artwork — printed, pressed, or worked by hand. The aim is not reproduction but re-authoring: the image enters matter, gains light, depth, and surface, and becomes something a screen cannot hold.
