About the Work
This print, titled Sight, is directly inspired by the painting of the same name featured in Emily Ludwig Shaffer’s solo exhibition, Five Ways to See, at Peres Projects in Milan. This body of work explores the sensory experiences of Taste, Smell, Touch, Sound, and Sight, and draws from the rich tradition of medieval tapestries such as The Lady and the Unicorn (c. 1500). In Sight, Shaffer continues her exploration of sensory perception through her signature hard-edge aesthetic. The print reflects her distinctive approach, characterized by clear lines, solid color blocks, and velvety layers. This highly graphic and colorful print reflects how sight is represented in Shaffer’s unique visual language. Shaffer’s exploration of modernist and pre-modern art traditions is evident in this piece, blending contemporary visual techniques with historical architectural references to create a compelling representation of sensory experience.

FRAME
All of our frames are made from sustainably sourced engineered hardwood that is manufactured in the USA. Frames are available in Black or White Matte and Walnut.
MAT
Prints are hinged to a conservation quality, acid-free and lignin-free Cellulose matboard, using acid-free polyethylene cloth tape. Each mat’s surface paper is fade and bleed resistant and is attached to a conversation quality foam-core board. Some of our work (typically those pieces with a deckled edge) is floated on the matboard with spacers to separate the artwork from the glazing.
