Above and Beyond

Michael Wallner – Above and Beyond, 2016, print on brushed aluminium. Limited edition of 25 (11 remain).

Aerial view of London, stretching from the South Bank as far as Kent in the distance. I am always looking for great views of London, views that best illustrate the beautiful lines and shapes that make it such an iconic city.

To achieve this view I hung out of a helicopter with the doors taken off. It was worth the extra heartbeats. The image is then digitally manipulated to trace the outlines of the buildings, coloured on a graphics tablet, and printed directly onto brushed aluminium. This gives the piece an etched effect.

A smart aluminium frame on the back makes it very easy to hang.

The piece is also available in a larger size: 104 x 152 cm.

Please note, this piece is made to order. It can usually be created and delivered in around 10-14 days.
