Matthias Mansen is interested in exploring the formal concerns of color, shape, and space in prints dealing with everyday experience. Here we see two images combined—an anonymous, abstract figure, and two hands with woodcut tools on a table. Mansen creates his woodcuts by using multiple woodblocks carved from found materials (such as old furniture), ensuring that each impression is unique in its inking and printing. Keen to show the process whereby his prints were made, Mansen relishes leaving greasy traces of ink around the edges of his imagery.
