Midi de l'Art: Blanca Beck - 5000 miles
Blanca Beck, born in 1979 in Columbus (Ohio, USA), holds a certificate in arts from the New York School of Arts and a degree in fine arts from the European Academy of Fine Arts in Trier, Germany. She also spent a teaching year and obtained a master's degree in English language and literature at the University of Malaga, Spain.
Cyanotype is an ancient photographic process that produces Prussian blue prints. Blanca Beck uses this technique not for purely photographic purposes but to express her artistic intent. The result is abstract cyanotypes, incorporating organic matter and a velvety surface, created from the movement of water, properties of various sources, and sunlight.
The project "5000 Miles", entirely conceived and carried out in the United States, consists of 50 cyanotypes on paper (Arches 300 g/m²), inspired by different types of water encountered from Seattle to New York: oceans, rivers, waterfalls, geysers, rain, snow, lakes, and streams. This work reflects on sustainable development and the environment, documenting the diversity of North American waters.
