welcome to ornamental abstractions

Ornamental abstractions shows digital art works of the ABSTRACTIONS project by veronika bernard.

about ornamental abstractions

logo-klein-mit schrift

Ornamental Abstractions is a digital arts project based on photography by Veronika Bernard.

The central idea of the project is to lift the colour potential and the ornamental structures present, but hidden, in photos to the surface of the final images.

Different filters are used on photos shot with a digital camera; occasionally parts of the photos are re-arranged in the process.

The works are finalized by producing a digital colour print on matt white cardboard, matt white paper (350 gram minimum) or white cotton, ranging from A4 to A3 in size; or on canvas ranging from A4 to A1 (or even larger sizes).

 

The works are available for exhibitions and for private use.

 

If you are interested in printed copies of the works or in printable quality files indicating the author’s copyright, please contact: ornamentalabstractions@gmx.at

 

The original photos go to Veronika Bernard’s Snapshot project and are available for exhibitions, print media and online media use.
