Johanna Calle: Trama

Calle states, “Almost all the works exhibited at Ruiz-Healy Art are examples of my interest in exploring ancient techniques of engraving, some of which fell into disuse. It also shows an interest in machines used in the eighteenth and nineteenth century, such as the iron hand press, or techniques invented in the eighteenth century, such as lithography. The old processes are for me a field of experimentation, when combined with interventions by hand or superimposing technical results from one process to another.”
