\"\"<\/a>The displays of our Computers and TVs have gone through an incredible evolution. In recent years, we have been confronted with advanced technology to present our work – tablets with high resolution displays as colourful, sharp and shiny as we could wish for. <\/p>\n

I remember – years ago – when I bought my first digital camera and asked the vendor, if the resolution would be sufficient to compete with my work that I have done on slides at that time. The reply was: <\/p>\n

Sure- but how would you like to present that resolution?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There was no equipment available to do that. The TV sets or beamers of that time simply could not compete with the capability of slide projectors. <\/p>\n

That was years ago, today the answer to my question would certainly have been a different one. We now have those tools. Like me, I am writing this blogpost on an iPad mini. I can switch to my Lightroom mobile app and go through my lates favourite pictur s with ease and speed. I can even include them in this post with just some clicks and you – assuming you have an equally advanced tool and screen available – could be part of the show. <\/p>\n

\ufeff<\/span><\/p>\n

With this technology, there seems to be no (logic) need for prints anymore to share your pictures. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And yet – I have the strong need to print my work and have the pictures shown and displayed in a frame. Why is that?<\/p>\n

The print – once it is mounted to the wall – unfolds the magic of its own. I find myself looking at those prints quite often and longer than I do on my iPad. They are always there, like friends reminding me of the process that as required to get them there in the first place. They have a different presence in my life than their virtual brothers and sisters. It is their physicality<\/i> that makes them special. <\/p>\n

The texture of the paper, their size, their tonality, the way we explore them. They resonate much stronger once they are printed. than they would on the computer screen. <\/p>\n

This is why I believe I will never stop printing. This magic is by far too seductive, especially when you get a whole body of work together, mounted on a wall like a small exhibition.  Prints are simply beautiful. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
