INDIA INK ON PAPER
Frederik Langhendries has been making a series of works on paper in a minimalist style, employing discarded materials of daily life such as waste paper or cardboard. He likes the imperfections and creased and eroded surfaces of these used materials.
Langhendries´s use of an India ink and walnut ink wash technique offers a wide scale of white, grey, and brown shades that complement the warm texture of the Kraft paper. The artist uses the thick brown paper employed for banana packaging in grocery stores, with the typical perforated grid and sometimes dried-on fruit stains.
Langhendries is greatly interested in using discarded materials of daily life such as waste paper or cardboard for their natural beauty. He likes the imperfections and creased and eroded surfaces. Some of his works on paper include collage with integration of corrugated carton and lithography.
