LODESTAR

2024–2025

LODESTAR serves as a central point of orientation within the series, its title evoking the guiding star used for navigation. Through the direct gravure process, light and gesture are translated into etched permanence, creating an image that functions as both marker and beacon.

• Medium: Direct gravure using photopolymer plates
• Paper: BFK Rives
• Dimensions: 15" × 22" (series format)
• Edition: Ten hand‑printed impressions, each uniquely marked by the press process

Conceptual Notes

The work reflects on constancy and orientation—how a lodestar provides direction across shifting landscapes. Each impression becomes a point of reference, balancing permanence with flux, and inviting reflection on how we navigate by enduring marks within changing contexts.
