Limited Edition of 35 “Nine Times” is the mesmerizing result of one year of collaboration with Peter Halley. It is his first experimentation with an entirely new process and tool -
LITO Hi-Rnd© technology-, which combines state-of-the-art technology and craftsmanship. This collection of editions has been conceived through a mechanical process – to create the texture and relief of the work – as well as a manual process, utilizing pigments and paints commonly used in Peter Halley’s paintings. “Nine Times” is informed by Halley’s interest in low-budget urbanization. Incorporating this theme into the process, Halley challenged LITO Editions to clone a ‘cell’ of Roll-A-Tex (a textured material seen in popcorn ceilings) and repeat it nine times to create nine individual canvases, which are then bolted together into a tightly packed yet unstable jigsaw puzzle, reminiscent of vintage video games. An effect heightened by the push and pull play of volumes. The signature hues of fluorescent nuances of blue in “Nine Times” were made in Peter Halley’s Studio and were then applied to each canvas at the LITO Tech Lab. Each artwork required nine hours of technical engineering and printing, followed by 16 hours of work by hand.
