The Colours of Bornholm
Backlit 100 x 100 cm

The Colours of Bornholm - 'Celebration Palette' - 100 cm x 100 cm Backlit Acrylic + Stories

Join in the celebration! It’s Bornholm in all its colourful glory… glowing with life as a unique Backlit PhotoArt. This stunning modern PhotoArt by artist Mandy Stacey is a collection of her 'best of Bornholm' colourful PhotoArt from all four seasons. And as a Backlit Acrylic, it becomes a bold and beautiful statement piece in your home, as well as an adjustable light source to reflect the mood, day or night.  And behind every one of its 120 pictures, there’s a little story…

Here's what Mandy Stacey has to say about her Backlit PhotoArt:

"Backlits are my preferred format for my PhotoArt, because it most closely resembles what I see. With my colour synesthesia and heightened senses, I view the world around me in very bright colours, that stimulate my senses and fill me with joy. And when my art is seen on a digital screen or backlit it really brings it to life, adding vibrancy to the colours. I just wish they were easier to photograph... trust me they look even better in real life."

Immerse yourself in the different elements of the PhotoArt:

• Mandy Stacey’s 120 individual 'Colour Samples' capture the very essence of Bornholm, beautiful at all times of the year.

• The 'Colour Samples' that 'redefine colour' are laid out as a giant colour 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 give greater insight into the 'Colour Samples'.

• The little stories about each and every picture. Sometimes informative, sometimes inspiring, will tell you where they were taken and why. Supplied as a print-out with the Backlit PhotoArt.

The different coloured images all come together in a striking composition, evoking the vibrant colours and happy memories of Bornholm in all four seasons. It really has the “wow-factor”.

FACTFILE:

• This Bornholm 'Celebration Palette' Backlit Acrylic (otherwise known as 'The Backlit Biggy' is part of Mandy Stacey’s PhotoArt Series 'The Colours of Bornholm: In All 4 Seasons' which is on display as The Original in her Gallery 'The House Of Many Colours' in Allinge in this same 100 cm x 100 cm Backlit interactive format, where customers can select and listen to the audio of the stories.

• This is what Mandy Stacey has to say about the original exhibition artwork which shares the same palette colours:

“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 2023 in The Oluf Høst Museum 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 Allinge, Bornholm 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.
