Miles Aldridge: The Making Of ‘Doors’
Enquire
True to Miles Aldridge’s cinematic oeuvre, his latest series ‘Doors’ (2023) blends the banality of everyday life with sharp-edged glamour and fantasy.
The works are masterly produced as screenprints, an analogue process that gradually deposits layers of ink onto paper by repetitively squashing a squeegee through a mesh. The result is soft and painterly, but on a closer viewing, it becomes clear that the image is constructed through a myriad pattern of painted dots, giving the work an immediacy and graphic quality associated with Pop Art. This short video shows the screenprinting process in action!
