Odilon Redon was an artist (painter and printmaker) from the late 1800's to very early 1900's. He frequently played with disembodied body parts in his work as he was a symbolist.
I have a fairly great appreciation for his work as it seems to appeal to a particular sense of analysis of the world for me. Analysis of ones environment and changing circumstance. And how that change can make people feel.
This Print is entitled After Redon because it is based (all be it somewhat loosely) on a print of his i saw once where the disembodied eye became the balloon.
The piece entitled The Eye, Like a Strange Balloon, Mounts Towards Infinity can be seen here.
This is a collagraph print that I inked up intaglio style. I then added watercolor and stamping elements.
