Autumnist IV.

The Autumnist series is a free continuation of the Fallen Petals series. It was created from drawings of pressed flower petals that the author found in the Netherlands during her internship. She put them in a notebook and forgot about them. After a long time, she found them and as a reminder of the memories of the time spent abroad, she turned them into a series of graphics.

The Autumnist series is more focused on the shape of the individual petals and the combination of 2 or 3 colours. The name comes from autumn, which for Lívia is mostly defined by the changing colours of the leaves on the trees and their falling (and feelings of nostalgia). The graphics are printed with a risograph which uses natural pigments made from rice. Their special feature is the changing colour during pressing. The author tries different colour combinations which are transformed in various ways in the end, just like the leaves in autumn.
