Description

This work, printed on both sides of the paper, comes from a larger series Ida referred to as Surface is the Between, a theme he revisited over the course of several decades. Exploring the notion of a print's surface as a point of contact—between self and ideas, between lithographic stone and paper—Ida viewed these works as a record of conceptual and physical encounters. Here, pools of ink, transparent paper, and the realism of the stone draw our attention to the print's surface.
