The practice of Jonathan B. Landman.
The Monokhromo Collection is a black-and-white fine art photography practice. Plates are issued slowly, in small digital editions, and accompanied by a signed certificate of authenticity.
Light
What the eye can hold without strain. The work begins, and ends, with how much of it is asked to be seen.
Stone
Architecture in monochrome — the material before it is read as building. Limestone, plaster, marble, mortar.
Shadow
Not the absence of light, but its discipline. Where the eye is asked to wait.
Silence
The condition the work hopes the room will hold while the print is being looked at.
The Monokhromo Collection began as a small, deliberate practice — to make photographs that read as objects rather than feeds, and to make them available without the friction of gallery overhead. Each work is offered as a digital edition: a high‑resolution master file, a certificate of authenticity, and a short letter of printing guidance.
The frame, the paper, the wall — these are choices best made by the person who will live with the work. The studio's role is to make sure the file is good enough that those choices are genuinely yours.
New plates are released slowly. The work is monochrome by conviction, not by aesthetic preference. The pillars are the discipline.
Digital editions
Each plate is a numbered digital edition. The master file is delivered after purchase, with a certificate of authenticity and printing guidance.
Three sizes
A4, A3, and A2 — € 65, € 115, € 195. Each size is prepared at 300 ppi with embedded ICC profile, ready to be sent to a printer.
Printed by you
The file is yours to print on the paper and surface of your choosing. The studio recommends a small set of papers in the guidance letter.
