Archival Inkjet Print, Photographic Diptych
12"x12" on 20"x30" sheet (Ed.of 10); and 15"x15" on 24"x36" sheet (Ed. of 6)
With all of the interest in my Snail Series that has been generated from the several blogs that have featured it in recent months – Muybridge’s Horse, Phases and now The Week, I am making a special web-only print available through my website (danielranalli.com).
The print is “X #2” - an archival inkjet image on rag paper. Sheet size is 12”x18” and each image is 6.5” square. The edition is limited to fifty and is priced at $200. Tube shipping is included, flat shipping is additional $20. Email me for more details if you wish: dranalli@bu.edu. This is smaller than my standard gallery prints, a larger edition and is much lower in price. Otherwise the quality is the same.
This is a series I have been working on for over twenty years on and off. Some years I don't do any, others - like a couple of years ago when I traveled to Nova Scotia I engaged intensively with the project. It is based on the drawings made by snails on the wet sand in the inter-tidal zone. They are part of an ongoing series of works involving collaboration between the snails and me.
I choreograph the snails’ starting positions, and then photograph the marks they make over time. I tend to think of the snail pieces as a metaphor for the order we establish in our lives, and how the element of chance enters in to shape the result - regardless of how much we attempt to structure it. Editions of 10 or 6.
