Premio Combat Prize

Erpe started the TERRAIN-cycle with a sort of prints - frottage - from inscriptions and other elevated shapes in the streets of Asia, and went on with prints made in all countries erpe visited. She used only papers made in these countries. As a collage on canvas these prints were the first layer for mixed media artworks. The paintings show both the clear prints of inscriptions and emblems of the visited towns, streets and roads and elements of landscapes of the famous Asian gardens.
