Artwork description:
Barges carrying the constituents of concrete are discharged on the banks of Ivry-sur-Seine, where concrete is mixed and poured into lorries bound for building sites around the city. Ivry is the main Asian district of Paris and there is a strong tradition here of hard work and Communism. There are factories, a railway marshalling yard, an athletics track, a theatre, a hospital and a cemetery, wherein a recent memorial plaque records:
“Maurice we think of you
The weeds that you let grow in your garden”.
Whether that is reproach or accolade I could not say but there is much to enjoy in Ivry.
This is an original relief print pulled from an engraving cut in rubber. The edition is 10 prints only. Please feel free to contact me to put a question or make a remark.
Materials used:
Japanese Sunome Senka paper, oil-based printing ink
