Ethan Caflisch’s multimedia works fuse hand-printed photographs, textiles, and handbuilt frames into compositions that balance precision with imperfection. These pieces are also color studies, embracing the beauty in the unprecious, where test prints and experiments become finished works in their own right.

Some images function as mimicry, others as translations, but a central figure recurs—a grounding force within shifting textures and tones. By layering materials and meaning, Caflisch creates works that feel both constructed and organic, inviting the viewer to engage with the tension between process and finality, memory and material, presence and absence.

In Caflisch’s Words:
the landscape appears in all these works. but they’re also color studies with a special consideration to treat tests as final works. the beauty in the unprecious. some act as mimicry, some act as translations, but centrally there’s a consistent figure to help guide and ground the image.
