This is a print that is based more than 95% on a paper drawing, with an A3 drawing with color pencils (Polychromos) being this base. That these drawings have been made with non-fade materials is due to the intervention of a friend, a renowned artist who mentioned to me why in hell I couldn’t use good artist paper and pencils and so I did. The new material quality of my drawings though did not become any essential for me, I was just happy about the extended color spectrum. This may explain to others why seeing a drawing as an unique copy, the equivalence of drawing and oils just in this respect for example, never was of much importance to me. Working with oils or pastels it was and is the sensuality of the material too, being a special stimulus. But drawing happened always for me on paper the same way I work with my computer’s monitor, ignoring materiality. Which texture does fantasy have? Quite often I drew on graph paper, because I had it at hand. But those little squares were not there for me, I ignored them altogether and later on I took the computer and removed them completely especially when using such images for a hybrid work. The size of my drawings stemmed from the paper at hand, not the size in which I “saw” the imagery. For this reason I don’t see in these cases my drawing as the “original” and the digital print as a “copy”, but instead as a transposition for which quantity, size, turns into a new quality, defining its own aesthetic dimension. The purely accidental or technical size limit is taken away, and I can give the image its “adequate” size, because this is, like others of this type, essentially a “big” image. This transposition became only possible through digital production technique, because other tries from artists with traditional photographic means did not work well technically and they were not accepted by the art market as well. But with high-end-scanning the results are fully on par with the drawing, though complete identity can not be reached because the color spectrum of the pigmented inks used for the digital print differs inevitably a bit. Since “reproduction” is not my goal, but instead creating printed graphics, this adds to the autonomous quality of these prints. The underlying drawings are in these cases just printing plates for me, nothing else.
