Ink Paper Abstract Composition Print, "Geometry As A Ball of Yarn"

Glaé Macalós's mastery in aquafortis and aquatint etching techniques shines through in this fascinating print. She masterfully coordinates five colors to enrich the print imagery. "Undoing balls of yarn has a specific meaning in my work. They are always present in the domestic chores of our mothers, aunts and grandmothers," explains Macalós. "In my prints, the balls of yarn appear like a metaphor of the artistic work, whereupon the artist must find the thread or strand that leads her to the meeting with oneself, and to liberation."

Titled "Na geometria como no novelo" in Portuguese.
