I have had the pleasure of working on a private commission for one of my favorite movies, Wong Kar Wai’ s In the Mood for Love. Curtesy to Lady Lazarus for the beautiful 8 colors silkscreen prints. The metallic gold ink must be seen in person for its full glory!
Big thanks to Joe Wong and Francis Fung for the commission, also Isaac Menge and Jon Smith for the amazing layer separation and print job!
