Description:
Horizon Shadow: Plate 2 is a print from Anish Kapoor's Horizon Shadow series — published by The Paragon Press, London, the prestigious British print publisher whose three-decade collaboration with Kapoor has produced some of the most significant and technically ambitious editions in contemporary British printmaking. The Paragon Press — whose roster includes Damien Hirst, Chris Ofili, Peter Doig, and Glenn Brown — brings to each Kapoor collaboration the same level of technical rigour and material ambition that characterises the artist's studio practice at every scale.
Kapoor's print work operates in the same conceptual territory as his sculptures and installations: the investigation of void, depth, surface, and the optical phenomena that occur at the boundary between presence and absence. The Horizon Shadow series takes its name from the line where light meets darkness, where the visible world gives way to what cannot be seen — a threshold that has preoccupied Kapoor since his earliest work with pigment and the colour of interior space. The print explores how a flat surface can suggest infinite depth, how darkness can be made to feel not like the absence of light but like the presence of something else entirely.
The Horizon Shadow prints are among the most intimate works Kapoor has published — modest in scale relative to his monumental sculptures, but no less rigorous in their engagement with the phenomenological questions that animate his entire practice. Produced in an edition of just 35 plus 9 artist's proofs — one of the smallest Kapoor editions in The Paragon Press's catalogue — signed and numbered in pencil on the reverse. Presented framed.
