Collage Wabi-Sabi I Tempera on Paper 41 x 56 cm by Ebba Jahn


Collage Wabi-Sabi
Painting on Paper reconstructed
41 x 56 cm
Ebba Jahn 2016
375 €/$
Wabi-sabi, a Japaneses view, is the art of finding beauty in imperfection. It celebrates cracks and crevices, rot and all the other marks that time and weather and use leave behind. To discover wabi-sabi is to see the singular beauty in something that may first look decrepit and ugly.
This collage has some of it, I think, and I started to like it in the working process .

Deconstruction - Reconstruction: It consists of one painting on paper, one of the first I made with self-mixed pigments and binders.
The composition is completely changed , three layers of paper are partly on top of each other plus the cardboard its glued upon and backed by for framing (strong enough.)

The painting pieces were ripped not cut - I wanted these edges. Wet layering and glueing is quite a technique for creating a collage of thick papers - my experienced collage art-buddy taught me how to do it, but he also ripped accidentally the paper on the top and bottom. "Oh, no problem" he said, it becomea part of the work !... (He took it a little too lightly I thought at first).

When it all had dried I could have cut it off, but I started to like it. Now I'm hoping others see some beauty in this rough piece as well - so here we go wabi-sabi ...

16" x 22" / 41 cm x 56 cm

Worldwide free shipping
Materials used:
pigments, binder, glue, papers

Organic - in 21 x 30 cm Passepartout Series by Ebba Jahn


Organic
14 x 20 cm in 21 x 30 cm
Watercolor on 300 g paper
Ebba Jahn, 2016


 "Organic" is part of my present daily practice of creating a contemporary abstract work for this
"in 21 x 30 cm Mount" series.

The earthy tones, a bright yellow and orange, layers and texture as well as the interesting overall shape of this watercolor painting makes it a god fit for this series.

The mount / passepartout has a natural white color (acid-free) with a very light structue, and an angled clean cut of . It fits into a standard frame for Din A 4 / 21 x 30 cm / ca. 8.5" x 12".
I'll add a hanger which can be attached to the back of the mount for immediate hanging.

Free Shipping Worldwide.

Floating I 35 x 45 cm / 14" x 18" by Ebba Jahn

Photo: Ebba Jahn

End of 2014 I started using tempera paints - powdered pigments mixed with binders by myself.

Floatings
Tempera on Paper
14" x 18" / 35 cm x 45 cm
Ebba Jahn, 2014
250 €/$
I started out with "dry" bold brushstokes, while following an inner rhythm.

In June 2015 tons of dead fish were floating on Berlin's waterways.
I dedicated the painting, which was already titled FLOATING to the scandal.

As of today, it is called FLOATINGS and detached from the scandal mentioned above.
It is an expressive, contemporary bold brush work with an organic feeling, also available in my shop at Artfinder or by mail.

Post 100: Thank you - Day 15 I Ebba Jahn

This is blog post 100 - time to thank you all for visiting this blog!

Lots of thanks to Leslie Saeta for her marvelous initiative "30 paintings in 30 days", a challenge for painting and sharing a work every day during January 2015.
I decided to go with my workflow, meaning, I'm also finishing some artworks from last year and finally photograph and publish them, besides painting new ones.

Here comes my last Day 15 with a good bye to the Leslie Saeta Followers.

Day 13 ​of the 30 day painting challenge comes on a watercolored paper postcard, matted in a natural white folding passepartout, which shows the original colors better than the close-up photo.

I like that.    Available through auction or mail to EJ

Day 8 of the challenge. Today I like the raw look of the weaving on the left, but it can also be certainly framed, even closer than on the right side, and the underground could be changed as well. After trying different undergrounds I finally stay with the darkblue for now.

TEMPERA - Artist Book Object by Ebba Jahn I Exhibition in Berlin January 8 - February 27, 2015

Book Object
Ebba Jahn 2014/15

TEMPERA 
Book Object
14 cm x 10 cm in closed cardboard box - standing 40 cm width
Ebba Jahn 2014 / 15

Exhibition 9. Jan. - 27. Feb. 2015
# TABS - Temporary Artist's Book Shop
LAGE EGAL Raum für aktuelle Kunst
Danziger Str. 145
10407 Berlin - Prenzlauer Berg

Wednesday - Friday 14h - 18h, Saturday 14h-17h

TEMPERA is a painted book object, presenting bold brush-strokes in abstract delight.
May the title inspire viewers to come up with their own words and/or meanings, e.g. tempo, temporary, temptation, or relate it to my self-made paint which is called tempera: pigments mixed with binder, a method used before contemporary ready-paints were invented.
The strong paper has an original width of 70 cm and is painted on one side, was then "accordion - folded" and lightly mounted at the top and bottom into a dark brown cardboard box, size 14 cm x 10 cm.
With the opening of the box-lid the pages start moving and can be flipped and stretched. Most of all this art book object can stand freely in a frontal upright position, then about 40 cm wide.

$ 95 / 90 € as of March 14th. via Paypal contact Ebba

30 Paintings in 30 Days - Day 7

Day 7 - Watercolor on Paper
15.5" x 19.5" / 30 cm x 40 cm
Ebba Jahn, 2015
In natural light photographed the structured off-white 300 g/m paper appears with a lighter and a darker side. The details can be seen quite well, although the original color vibrates less dark. This is a print made with only orange and blue on a pane of glass; the outcome is a unique original - if it withstands the test of time it won't get cut.
Available through auction or email to Ebba
