Another new year for «ungewohnt» inspired another new design from Salome. This beautiful work of art you see below was created through etching and Photoshop. Although of course I expected myself not understanding what it is when I saw it, I was sure that time that at that first sight, I saw an extraordinary art. At first I was not realizing it was done manually, I mean, I thought it was done using a software or application in a Computer that made all the lines of the design perfect. But of course and as always, there’s always hard work behind every Salomes beautiful creation. According to her, she used the art printing process called LITHOGRAPHY. She took different courses about Art which brought her the initiative to create Designs like this. In addition, her inspiration of nature will always be great influence to herself and her designs. Etching is traditionally the process of using strong acid or mordant to cut into the unprotected parts of a metal surface to create a design in intaglio (incised) in the metal.[14] In modern manufacturing, other chemicals may be used on other types of material. As a method of printmaking, it is, along with engraving, the most important technique for old master prints, and remains in wide use today. In a number of modern variants such as microfabrication etching and photochemical milling it is a crucial technique in much modern technology, including circuit boards. It is really amazing when «ungewohnt » speaks art and nature. The combination of these two is so strong and with Salome putting justification on them, is indeed a great piece of inspiration to me and to all of us Lyn
