"Fine-Arts" prints on paper
It is a process of printing on art paper using very high-quality pigment inks and printed in very high definition. Its level of conservation is exceptional (more than 100 years), its quality, depth, and richness of nuances exceeds the classic photo print on Argentic paper.
Glossy finish
Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

La technique du "collage coloriage" que j'ai développée m'a permis de repousser les limites traditionnelles du collage. En manipulant les couleurs et les formes, j'ai façonné une silhouette androgyne qui remet en question les normes de genre profondément ancrées dans notre société consumériste. La posture robotique du personnage, accentuée par un bandeau sur les yeux, symbolise notre aveuglement collectif face à la frénésie d'achat qui nous entoure.
Le titre "Black Friday" fait référence à cette journée emblématique de surconsommation, devenue un phénomène mondial. Pour moi, cette journée représente le paroxysme de l'absurdité de notre système économique. En créant cette œuvre, je voulais inciter le spectateur à réfléchir sur nos habitudes de consommation et leur impact sur notre société et notre environnement.
La citation de Gandhi associée à cette œuvre - "Si chacun ne conservait que ce dont il a besoin, nul ne manquerait de rien, et chacun se contenterait de ce qu'il a" - résonne profondément avec mon message artistique. Elle invite à une prise de conscience, à un retour à l'essentiel, en opposition directe avec la surconsommation symbolisée par le Black Friday.
À travers cette œuvre, je cherche à provoquer une réflexion sur nos valeurs, nos besoins réels, et la façon dont nous pourrions construire une société plus équilibrée et respectueuse. Le collage, en tant que médium, me permet de déconstruire et de reconstruire notre réalité, offrant ainsi une nouvelle perspective sur des problématiques contemporaines urgentes.

Kerkhove Dominique, alias Dom(K) is an artist, Euro citizen, tireless walker and patient observer, he search on the walls of cities what makes my raw material: the poster. Ecological Realistic, he use what already exists to transform it. He create "Made-Ready" (or collages) from torn posters. He breathe a new destiny into an ephemeral urban creation to make a contemporary work that fits into time. Free from the straitjacket of a specific doctrine, he recognize, however, a technical proximity used by certain artists: exploitation of under posters (Dufresnes), all over (Pollock), take-off (Vostell). Made-Ready is not a style of collage but an approach that expresses itself through a plurality of pictorial forms whose central element is the paper (poster) resulting (torn) from an urban context. Despite various attempts at hierarchical classification, my work is in no way allegorical. It is concrete and materialistic. It is a narrative work of incarnation. I consciously try to give body to the sensations and perceptions, ideas and values, which constitute my artistic universe. With his Made-Ready he translate his emotions into evolving series (questionings) whose themes address a society in full industrial, moral and climatic change. Made-Ready" where he invite the spectator to react on his own certainties and evidences. A subtle game between voluntary and involuntary memory. Close to the art brut, I define my resolutely abstract positioning for a thematic yet figurative of our society."
