Relief printing on Super Alfa paper. Signed, Numbered and Dated. Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase (2022) by Jaume Plensa is a minimalist yet deeply symbolic relief print. It features the profile of a child's head, rendered in a wireframe mesh that evokes both fragility and structure. Emerging from the back of the head is a ribbon-like banner inscribed with the titular quote, arching into space: "Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase." The phrase, attributed to Martin Luther King Jr., reinforces Plensa's exploration of human consciousness, belief, and the invisible structures that guide us. The composition's interplay of delicacy and thought invites introspection on vulnerability and trust in the unknown.

What is site specific art?
Site-Specific Art is a form of artwork created to exist in a particular location, with the artist considering the site as an integral part of the creative process. Robert Irwin was a key figure in promoting this art form in California. Site-Specific Art emerged as a reaction against modernist objects, which were often portable, commodified, and confined to museum spaces. In contrast, Site-Specific Art is inherently tied to its location, challenging the traditional notions of art as a transportable and marketable commodity.
