Johan De Wilde. Hands of time (Paperback)
Johan De Wilde. Hands of time (Paperback)
Five years on and the acclaimed Hands of Time has a sequel entitled Hands of Time - Plein été. The second part is an overview of drawings and other works from the period 2012 to 2017 and follows on seamlessly from the first. Johan De Wilde's work seems if ever that is possible, to have become even more intense and his drawing style to explore new layers. The drawings can be seen as the work of a human printer (man created the computer in his own image). They are built up like paintings: a labor-intensive process, layer upon layer of horizontal and vertical lines interwoven with a form, a figure. It is as if he is drawing the canvas on which he paints with his pencils. Johan De Wilde draws real-time on a scale of 1:1. While his and our time slip by, lines appear, which is another reason why almost every drawing is given the title History + a number. Vita brevis, ars longa.

Productomschrijving

ALPENGLOW takes the reader through a journey of personal adventure, immersive art and breathtaking scenery, combining inspiration with detailed local knowledge. Climbing the 4000m peaks of the Alps is one of the great and enduring challenges in mountaineering. It is a project that requires endurance, courage, skill, and humility.   Whether you are a lover of mountain landscapes, an aspiring alpinist, or already a veteran of many adventures, this book will provide a wealth of original and inspiring material to help with planning future excursions or simply immersing yourself in the beauty of the high mountain   Drawings The photography in the book is matched by a series of finely wrought pencil drawings. Several of these are available as luxury prints to complement the book.   Finsteraarhorn pencil drawing (12 x 8 cm) example   The drawings for this project are usually smaller than a typical postcard. Each one is based on photographs and made with finely-sharpened pencils whilst looking through a magnifying glass.   I usually start each layer of detail from one side and work steadily to the other to avoid smudging the fragile image with my hands. I rarely use an eraser as once the marks are made they are too small and fragile to modify. Each drawing takes between 2 and 10 weeks to complete.
