Great stuff. As a former software engineer and currently a digital artist, I see what you did there! Printing out something that was created digitally truly add a degree of tangibility to it for sure! The source file might get corrupted and not longer viable. But so long as there's a physical copy, that expression can still be shared and enjoyed! :-)

Thanks! 🙏🏼 for me a print is the only way I intended the work to be seen. No backlight, no screens that need to be calibrated. Just good old paper.

Beautifully expressed Bastiaan. As Ansel Adams eloquently stated, “the negative is similar to the musician’s score, and the print to the performance of that score. The negative comes to life only when performed as a print”. In today’s world the same can be said of the digital image.

Dear Bastiaan, great thoughts and very inspiring for the future to come.

I totally agree on ending the creative process with a tangible object.

Thanks for sharing!
