Spring Skinny Palette 23 x 50 cm

The Colours of Bornholm – Spring Mini Colour Palette – 23 x 50 Poster

A fresh, modern take on Bornholm in its finest Spring colours. This small, slim format lends itself to presenting the perfect Spring edit. In just 8 images, the zinging greens, clean blues and bright sunshine yellows capture the essence of Bornholm. And behind every little picture is a story…

Immerse yourself in the different elements of the PhotoArt:

• Mandy Stacey’s 8 individual “Colour Samples” that capture a small slice of Bornholm life in the Spring months: grazing goats on new grass; bursting blossoms; crystal clear water; a traditional ochre painted house; and everyone’s favourite Østerlars Church.
• The Colour Samples that “redefine colour", laid out as a mini Spring palette – a slice of real life in all its 3D glory being so much better at representing that colour than a man-made chart.
• The expressive colour names that give greater insight into the Colour Samples.
• The little stories about each picture. Sometimes informative, sometimes inspiring, they’ll tell you where they were taken and why. Sent as a print-out with the poster.

The different coloured images all come together in a harmonious composition, evoking the fresh colours and vitality of beautiful Bornholm in Spring.

FACTFILE:

• The Spring Palette is an edit of Mandy Stacey’s PhotoArt Series “The Colours of Bornholm: In All Four Seasons” which is on display in her Gallery “The House of Many Colours” in Allinge.
• It is taken from part 1 of her 3-part Spring series, where the famous Bornholm artist Oluf Høst (1884-1966) plays an inspirational role in the artworks, with their parallel colour palettes for each season.
• This is what she has to say about the original exhibition artwork:

“I fell in love with Bornholm in the summer of 2022. It was easy. The vibrant colours, the breath-taking beauty of the nature, the ageless charm of the place. And then I discovered the famous artist Oluf Høst’s paintings of Bornholm, capturing the same scenes in the same bright colours, and it inspired me to create a PhotoArt series celebrating the colours of Bornholm in all four seasons.”

• Her interest in Oluf Høst was rewarded with an exhibition in The Oluf Høst Museum in 2023 using her PhotoArt to tell the fascinating story of the artist’s son Ole W. Høst who tragically died in WW2.
• Mandy Stacey is an English artist now living in Sandvig with her Danish husband and business partner Curt Stavis. As well as creating her PhotoArt, they both have a company Bornholm365 to develop business and tourism on the island all year round.
