Five Facts About James Joyce Diamond Dust

  2. 02

    Abandoning Reason (Silver Diamond Dust) and Abandoning Reason (Yellow Diamond Dust) are both silkscreens on Somerset Satin White 410gsm paper measuring 95 x 95cm, released in 2021 in editions of 15.

  3. 03

    The diamond dust finish — fine crushed glass applied over the printed surface — is a technique historically associated with Andy Warhol's screenprints from 1979 onward, later adopted by Joyce for this body of work.

  4. 04

    The Abandoning Reason prints extend Joyce's ongoing exploration of the deconstructed smiley face, rendering the scattered facial elements in a monochrome silver or yellow diamond-dust surface rather than his more typical flat colour palette.
