| Kate Breakey, Octopus I, archival pigment ink on glass and 24kt gold leaf, 6" x 6," edition of 20, $1200 |
photo-eye Gallery is pleased to present three new beautiful orotones by Kate Breakey.
The luminescent glow of Kate Breakey’s orotones is a large part of their instant allure. These works, like Octopus I above, are made by printing images directly onto glass and then carefully applying 24 karat gold leaf behind the ink. They shimmer when directly lit and emanate a warm glow in subdued lighting. The contrast between the ink and gold backing, and the way light is reflected from the gold, creates a shifting, radiant presence that will thoroughly captivate any viewer.

* Prices for the above works include the frames
Like most of Breakey’s work, the orotones are editioned, and yet there is room for variance and individuality in each piece. Since each work is custom framed, and the gold leaf is applied by hand (like the embroidery and hand-applied color in her other works), no two images in an edition will be entirely identical. This makes each piece special, and function as a unique object.
