Vain Attempts, 2022.  Artist Book, grey cardboard box, photographs, transfer printing, laser and inkjet printing, stamp, 36.5 x 30 x 3.5 cm, limited edition of 12 numbered and signed copies.

​​

This edition presents my vain attempts to reach the printmaking workshop while keeping my engraving plates attached under my shoes. On several occasions, I tried to connect the printmaking studio at 128 rue Sans Souci from the workspace I occupied at the time.
These walks resulted in three series of monotypes.
An installation was created following these attempts.
This edition retraces the absurd story of a collector of prints who did not want to lose a single one.

31st Printmaking and Printed Image Prize – Centre de la Gravure et de l’Image imprimée, La Louvière, Belgium, 2022.
