Taak
Editions
The light of the old masters. The rooms of an Indian home.
Nine limited, numbered editions. Printed as giclée on archival cotton rag, framed, and ready to hang. Retired when the edition closes.
Nine pieces on the edge of vastness — a single warm light, held in the dark.
Chiaroscuro, tenebrism, impasto: the technique of the old masters, turned on subjects that belong to now. Painterly work made for the contemporary Indian home — old technique, new tools, one eye choosing what survives.
I moved into a new home and went looking for art. I found the same prints in every other home, or folk art made for a different kind of room.
Nothing fit how we live now. So I began making what I couldn't find.
Every Taak edition begins as a generated image and ends as a decision. Many are made; almost all are discarded. What remains is chosen by one eye, finished by hand, and made to hang in a home.
The Vast
Threshold
The dark opens, briefly.
Heartwood
It was here before the light was.
The Crossing
Someone walked here, and kept going.
The Passage
The day leaves by the river.
The Signal
It keeps turning, whether or not you look.
The Wall
Someone left a lamp burning.
Anchorage
Enormous, and at rest.
The Vigil
One window, and everything above it.
The Deep
The light is a long way up.
Once an edition is complete, it is retired. It is never printed again.
Each piece is a limited, numbered edition — printed as a giclée on archival cotton rag, framed in thin matte black, and ready to hang. Each ships with a hand-signed certificate of authenticity.
