Limits

A new work, etching again but this time acid-etching on zinc.
It's a sentence from the play Morts Sans sépulture by Jean-Paul Sartre.
I wanted to have a gash between the beginning of the sentence and the last words, I consequently had to keep the plate in the acid for quite a long time, resulting in holes in other parts of the plate.



But I find the result good, the texture and the look of the plate responds to the text and the spacing between the lines is not a problem either.


I still have to add the name of the author and I will be done with this work :-)
