Diasec

100 x 100 cm

The title refers to the substance in our body responsible for hair colour, and skin tone . I want this painting to celebrate our colorful individuality and uniqueness and the fact that our shades and colours are merely skin deep and entirely determined by this substance called Melanin.

    Within South Africa we courier your artwork to your door - the shipping cost will show at the checkout.

    When shipping art internationally, two primary options are commonly considered: crated and rolled. Crating involves securely packaging the artwork in a custom-built crate, providing maximum protection against physical damage but often resulting in higher shipping costs due to size and weight.
    On the other hand, rolling art involves taking stretched paintings off the frame, carefully wrapping the artwork and placing it in a protective tube. This method is more cost-effective and suitable for flexible pieces.
    Choosing between crating and rolling depends on the specific artwork's size, fragility, and budget, as well as the destination's shipping requirements and regulations.

    We will be in touch regarding the best options for you.

    Description

    Description of a Diasec

    A Diasec consists of 3 layers; an aluminium dibond board as the support material, the image on photographic paper (or an inkjet print), and a layer of acrylic glass.

    The image gets onto the photographic paper via laser light and the paper gets developed as conventional photographic paper in previous times.

    The paper used for the Diasec we sell is Fuji Chrystal Archival Paper, which has a specific glow and enhances the colours. Once finished, the image gets pasted on the aluminium dibond board and in a cleanroom covered with acrylic glass.

    Fuji gives a 75-year guarantee on colourfastness of the image and the acrylic glass filters around 90% of UV light.

    There are only very few companies worldwide who are able to produce Diasec in high quality. Because of this, we have all our Diasec made in Germany.
