Fiber Ink Studio client Amy Bedik explores the lonely places of her childhood in Boaat Press (an online journal of poetry and photography). We have been working with Amy for several years as her scanning, retouching and print house. So pleased to see this work introduced here.

Her statement:

A Lonely Place is an ongoing exploration of the places where I spent my childhood. The three locations, a suburban New York town, a rural town in the Catskill Mountains of New York State, and a neighborhood in Queens, were, in my recollection, isolated and lonely places in which to live, and I was curious to see how they had evolved over the many years I spent away. It’s been interesting to see how some things have changed — trees now dwarf houses, buildings have collapsed — but the atmosphere of melancholy and isolation has remained curiously the same. While the images are records of particular places, they are also meant to suggest the dislocation and isolation one might feel in an environment that has evolved without a central plan that takes into account human needs and desires.

More of Amy’s work can be found here.

Prints of her work can be collected in our print shop. All work printed on Hahnemühle Bamboo 290 (90% bamboo fibers and 10% cotton) 280gsm (matte), with HDR inks.

Proud to have pared with ShadowBox Shop Framing in Brooklyn on this production for artist Joshua Korenblat. To reproduce Joshua’s drawings with weight and warmth we printed on Hahnemühle Bamboo 290 (90% bamboo fibers and 10% cotton) 280gsm (matte). The show features drawings of returning Vets at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. This important project is currently on view in DC at The Pepco Edison Place Gallery in D.C. Watch NYTimes Video and meet the Vets and see artists in action.

Too bad the sale already ended over at One Kings Lane. But take a look at these lush little treasures from  artist Doug Wada.

We printed these on Hahnemühle Bamboo 290 (90% bamboo fibers and 10% cotton) 280gsm (matte).

Gorgeous!

Happy to report that all of the prints we had the pleasure of working on for the Art From the Heart exhibition (July 28th, Gowanus Loft, Brooklyn) have been delivered! We printed for over 24 artists for the show using variety of archival papers. Curator Jennifer Kahrs (Shadowbox Shop) worked closely with many of the individual artists (and FIS) making recommendations on paper and dimension to best suit the work. Guiding artists through paper choices and the right media for their individual work is one of our favorite things to accomplish over here at Fiber Ink Studio. I thought we might share a few of the prints we are so proud of.  All of these prints and many more will be available for viewing and purchasing at the loft on Saturday night.
