Danish artist Lene Bladbjerg creates prints of striking graphic quality. Crossing the line from graphic design to fine art, Bladbjerg’s work is infused with a gently haunting character, as bold type and strong composition dominate the frame. ‘Walk This Way’ relies on an ultra minimalist composition, using nothing but a repeated simple shape in a clean, sharp palette to produce a strong aesthetic. Small, black figures stride across the grey page, each placed haphazardly for a feeling of flow and movement. Amongst the shadowy figures, Bladbjerg has nestled a single purple character, walking against the crowd as a symbol of daring difference. Dripping in artistic savvy, the piece is strong in its simplicity, driven by an unparalleled sensitivity to colour and composition for a truly arresting piece of contemporary print work.
