Umber Trace

A study of texture, shadow and the traces of light.

Chapter IV
Concept

A study of texture, shadow and the traces of light.

Umber Trace turns from the night toward earth and matter — warm ivory, taupe and burnished shadow, where light no longer illuminates but lingers, held in the grain of the surface. The fourth chapter of the Minïmae archive.

Texture × shadow × the trace of light.

Warm ivory, umber and burnished shadow — matter remembered after the light has passed.

Ember Drape

Where fabric follows the body, movement becomes form.

Umber Trace should feel like matter remembered after the light has passed.
