The nudos serie responds to the Nubes, realized in same size, with same technique (mezzotinto). The first part of the work was to create some images of knots with a dedicated software : mathematic knots generated by algorithm in a random and repetitiv way. Then choose and use part of this numeric production as raw material for engraving work. This process of reinterpretation including a certain gap with the reference model, purely mathematic : handmade images, with hand-crafted process, therefore imperfects. x
