From a collaborative project and exhibition The Mind is Also a Landscape, presented at Public Land in Sacramento (November 16, 2019 - January 15, 2020). The project featured the work of nine contemporary artists whose varied practices encompass painting, sculpture, printmaking, performance and writing.

Among the group, several artists produce work that is discernibly influenced by or produced in concert with the natural world, while for others that relationship is less direct. What is shared is the impulse to be drawn out from the familiar interior of the studio into a freer, less personal landscape of the natural world and to be receptive to its surprises and liberations.

From each artist, we requested they share personal photographs from periods of ‘free time’ spent in the outdoors, not engaged in the act of ‘making’ or ‘doing’ but in receptive exploration. We then reproduced a selection of those images in large format as single-color silkscreen prints which, when installed, built a kind of panorama of collective creative experiences undertaken outside of their typical, urban environment in disparate natural locations.

In her seminal book Wanderlust: A History of Walking writer Rebecca Solnit proposes that nature can behave as a pace as well as a place. The pace of a person walking allows the natural world to introduce a new time metric, one that is inherently bodily. In many ways The Mind is Also a Landscape offers its own meditation on time; The seasonal and geological time of landscape; The suspension of time within the camera’s frame; The symbiotic relationship of the artists’ time spent inside and outside the space of studio production. To the viewer, the exhibition proposes a consideration of how the natural environment influences artists in immeasurable ways and by extension how it influences all of our lives, our imagination and our wellbeing.

Our typical framing practice is to float mount prints with 1-inch (2cm) of space around the print. This is a method of framing that keeps the art fully visible in the frame and leaves the edges of the cotton papers exposed. A spacer is added to the frame to keep the artwork from touching the plexiglass. Float mounting requires adhering the print to an acid free foam core back or mat board using acid free linen tape.

UV-filtering plexiglass is used for all frames, an option that has become the industry standard. Plexiglass is lighter, scratch-resistant & shatter-resistant (essential for shipping). It also provides more UV protection and less glare than glass.

The best way to love your prints and ensure a long, happy life is certainly to have them framed. A high quality frame can prevent damage, fading and also show your prints off in their best possible light. If you are interested in having your print framed through our site, take a look at our framing information page.

We’ve found that the best way to avoid damage, is to ship prints carefully packaged in sturdy tubes. A day or two under some heavy books and they'll be nice and flat. However, keep in mind that because of the nature of cotton paper, it will respond to differing levels of humidity in the air. Sometimes paper will lay flat and other times it will slightly ripple. This is natural and a lovely reminder of its physicality as an organic object, embrace its paper personality! If you’re planning to frame your print, just take them rolled up to your framer and they can expertly take care of the flattening process.
