Exlibris of Nina Bichuya 1975

"Exlibris of Nina Bichuya" (1975) is a black and white woodcut by Ukrainian artist Oleksandr Aksinin. The work is an intricate design featuring geometric shapes, a clock, and two hourglasses, all enclosed within a complex, seemingly three-dimensional framework. The design is typical of Aksinin’s work which often incorporated elements of Surrealism and graphic design into his distinctive artistic style. The artwork also features a signature and the inscription “Ex Libris Nina Bichuya,” suggesting that it is a bookplate, a small design used to identify the owner of a book. The inscription also indicates that this is the 12th print out of 20 created for this particular design.
