Orientations Of The Night I
Work Summary & Collector Notes
"Orientations Of The Night I" is the first in a 2025 self-released triptych series, a hand-pulled screen print on 290gsm Coventry Rag with deckled edges at 12 x 16 inches, in an edition of 50. As the opening panel it anchors a sequenced set that explores nocturnal disorientation and shifting ground.
Collector notes: The saved release record describes: Limited edition of 50. Edition-specific signature, numbering, and stamp details were not stated in the saved release record. Verify signing and numbering against a documented example of this edition.
Why It Matters
Sequential works invite collectors to pursue the full trio, and as panel I this print establishes the series. The smaller 12 x 16 format and lower price point make it an accessible entry into Peterson's 2025 output, while the edition of 50 preserves scarcity across the set.
Collector Perspective
Completeness drives interest here: a matched I-II-III set is more compelling than a single panel, so buyers often chase all three. The compact size suits grouped hanging. As a self-released work, edition numbers should ideally align across the trio, and provenance rests on the artist's own release documentation.
Historical Context
Dated 2025, the "Orientations Of The Night" series extends Peterson's exploration of darkness as both literal setting and metaphor for moral and social disorientation. Conceived as a numbered sequence, it reflects his interest in staging conflict and unease across a deliberate progression of images.
