Australia-based artist Loui Jover has created a series of artworks using pen and ink drippings on the pages of vintage books.
Many of his portraits paint romantic love scenes of silhouettes—portraying deep emotions on a woman’s face.
Jover’s choice of pen and ink on vintage papers came from a belief that it adds fragility to the works.
The juxtaposition of black lines on intricate printed words creates “a strange fusion and depth that seems to give the images a kind of 'meaning' and back story, even though unconnected in a contrived way.”
