From John's most recent series, Lotus, this limited edition print is being released here for the first time. A warm toned, black and white archival, digital pigment print, this is print #1 of 25. Printed by the artist on museum quality, heavy weight exhibition fiber paper, it is signed by the artist below the image in the right corner and on the back where it is also titled and numbered with the artist's stamp. The print, at the size indicated, is centered on paper that is approximately 24x24 inches. Prices on the limited editions increases as the edition sells out.
The Lotus were discovered by John in the fall of 2011. Returning frequently to the site over the next 5 months, the work explores the end of the life cycle of this plant. The images created are not just about the plant but of a metaphorical and/or psycho-spiritual nature that transcend the subject.
The entire series, sequenced by John, can be seen here: http://johnacurso.com/lotus.html
In addition to this limited edition, the image is also available in an open edition of intimate, 7 inch square prints. Please let John know if you are interested in this size by sending him a message here on this site or by sending an email and he will post it here for purchase.
