Deckle Edging at Prolab: A Tactile Finish for Contemporary Art

At Prolab, we understand that the presentation of fine art prints plays a crucial role in conveying the artist’s vision. That’s why we offer specialised decal edging services, providing your mounted prints with the elegant, hand-torn appearance reminiscent of traditional deckle edges.​

Enhancing Artistry with Decal Edging

Decal edging adds a tactile and visual depth to fine art prints, creating a unique border that enhances the overall aesthetic. This technique is particularly effective when paired with float mounting, allowing the textured edges to cast subtle shadows and draw viewers into the artwork.​

Jack Bailey: A Testament to Decal Edging

Contemporary artist Jack Bailey, based in Byron Bay, exemplifies the impact of decal edging in his work. Bailey’s art delves into abstraction and natural patterns, capturing dream-like sequences that invite contemplation. His large-format pieces, framed without glass in reclaimed timber, utilise decal edging to extend the organic experience beyond the image itself. This presentation choice aligns seamlessly with his philosophy of deepening our connection to the natural world.​JACK BAILEY
