The title is a reference to the particular working method developed by Drenska. It consists of ‚appropriating’ again fragments of previous work, manipulating them in scale and generally using the varying shades of grey or black in the way renaissance painters used «grisaille» as a preparatory painting layer for their work. She produces large-scale collages which are then used to create the ‚one of a kind’ final toner transfer print.
Five unique pieces, each 120 x 80 cm. Prints in toner transfer on rag paper.
Series Cyan Drawings 2005
Three unique pieces, each 140 x 106 cm, silkscreen on poplin.
