“A photograph on screen is merely information. It becomes true art only when it comes alive on fine paper.”
🏛️ Upcoming Solo Exhibition: Larne Museum & Arts Centre (September 2027)

Following our celebrated 2024 museum exhibition “Portraits of Belonging: Faces of Northern Ireland”, Lucas Malec returns to the prestigious Larne Museum & Arts Centre for a major solo exhibition in September 2027. All collector prints featured in this studio represent exhibition-grade works created and curated for this showcase.

✨ The Master Printcraft Standard
We believe in absolute physical integrity. Prints are never outsourced to commercial mass-production print houses — every single sheet is personally calibrated, inspected, and printed by Lucas Malec in our Belfast atelier:
- Fine Art Print Engine: High-definition multi-channel pigment printing via calibrated Epson EcoTank ET-8550.
- Archival Papers: 100% acid-free museum cotton rag and baryta surfaces (300+ gsm) ensuring 100+ years of lightfast longevity.
- Strict Limitation: Master Edition (A3+ / 329 × 483 mm) capped at strictly 10 numbered copies worldwide. Collector Edition (A4 / 210 × 297 mm) capped at 25 copies.
- Hand-Signed & Certified: Each print is individually numbered and signed in archival pencil by the author, accompanied by an embossed Certificate of Authenticity.
