30.4.26 - Anya Gallaccio limited edition print for Counter Editions

A new limited edition print by Anya Gallaccio for Counter Editions is available now. Waxing Star (2026) is Gallaccio’s first collaboration with Counter Editions.

 

Created through an intensive, process‑driven collaboration that began with the artist’s long‑standing fascination with historic apple imagery, the print offers a rare moment of stillness within a practice rooted in transformation. Beginning with a series of studio photographs of individual apples, Gallaccio worked closely with the Counter Editions studio team to build a composition. The final work combines inkjet underlayers with hand‑applied, pigmented varnishes, and ground pastel mixed into the surface. The result is a subtly intricate print that foregrounds the handmade, with each impression carrying its own character and the tactile presence of the artist’s process.
