Fiona Mackay Syntax, 2013
Habotai silk with digital print, a debossed box with lid, printed tissue paper Edition of 20 + 5 AP
250 x 250 mm silk, with 250 x 250 mm box
£220 (£15 Postage and Packaging)
Fiona Mackay has produced a limited edition silk handkerchief accompanied by a custom-made presentation box and packaging. Abstract paintings featured in Mackay’s exhibition result from batik dye applied to thin canvas, emulating silk fabric traditionally associated with the process. Mackay has reinterpreted her medium, digitally rendering an original batik painting onto Habotai silk, creating a tension between the coldness of digital design and subtle batik process, contained within the aesthetic of a gentleman’s silk handkerchief as an intimate, yet luxurious object. A custom-made gift box embossed with the exhibition title Syntax and lined with printed tissue paper also stores the handkerchief for safe-keeping.
