In 2023 Workingbert presented at Masterly two wall hangings from the Tabula Rasa series.
Illuminated natural plant imprints on handmade paper.
These works were the starting point for the collaboration with Royal Delft.
A contemporary take on floral and leaf motives for the new RE-FRAMED wall plates.
In a process of pressing and steaming stacked hand picked wild and cultivated plants between rag paper in rust waters, the plants imprint themselves on paper. (A printing manner comparable with
eco printing)
