Description

A boy spray paints the house that shelters him. His creativity provides a haven where he can follow his dreams.

The spray-painted lines are like bulwarks against darkness. They preserve that childlike inner light that continues to shine.

Three years after his last lithograph “At the window,” Seth presents “In my house,” an edition enhanced and hand-painted with spray cans that evokes his large-scale mural painted on a wall in a working-class district of Laon, France in 2022.

For this edition of one hundred and fifty, each print is unique. Each house is different from the other, painted by the artist using spray cans. Seth combines the precision of printing with the organic, uncertain gesture of painting and the rawness of the tool. Patience and meticulousness thus meets vibration and spontaneity. In this case, the concept of multiple becomes unique.

Seth has chosen to entrust the realisation of this lithograph to the Idem printing house. Founded in 1881, this Parisian temple of art printing is highly acclaimed by some of the greatest artists on the international scene. Artworks created here are presented in museums as well as in private collections across the world.

This lithograph is composed of fifteen colours and is printed with a Marinoni press on hand-cut white Velin BFK Rives 270g paper. It is enhanced and hand-painted using eight different spray can colours. It measures 103×70.5 cm.
