Dara Barker: Untitled II
Inspired by the Japanese concept of wabi sabi, Dara Barker's art celebrates the beauty of imperfection wrought by the inexorable passage of time. The artist and interior designer draws on her collection of vintage textiles, reimagining their organic textures in dimensional canvases. Multiple layers of materials are applied to create texture and evoke the rich patina and character of an antique piece. The luminous work beautifully reflects the light and creates a sense of visual depth.

Founded by Portia de Rossi, a collector and art world disruptor, General Public makes a radical proposition: a painting shouldn't be enjoyed by just one person, but should be available to all. The General Public Synograph™, a groundbreaking 3-D technology, redefines the limits of printing, recreating every detail of the original artwork with total fidelity. Capturing the nuances of brushwork and technique, these textured prints are an authentic expression of the artist's hand.
