About this print — Every single frame of the movie Empire of the Sun has been analysed and averaged to a single colour. These colours are then arranged chronologically to create a unique fine art composition that captures the entire visual journey of Steven Spielberg's film. Printed using archival pigment inks on 308gsm Hahnemühle photo rag fine art paper, each print is a museum-quality giclée produced to order and created in its original theatrical aspect ratio.
