    Goeritz’s Mensaje, 1982, is a fine-art paper relief created by hand; it incorporates unprecedented detail and sculptural form in a traditionally two-dimensional format. The gilded work has a luminosity that echoes Goeritz's investigations at the time with the stained-glass environments in churches. Light, after all, is a sacred element. Mathias collaborated with the Remba's, founders of the Taller de Gráfica Mexicana, at their Mexico City workshop. The atelier produces and publishes handmade paper prints, multiples, and sculptures in all media that enlarge the language of editions by incorporating dimensionality and relief into a traditionally two-dimensional medium. Luis and Lea Remba, founders of the high-end art printing company, brought their enterprise from Mexico City to Los Angeles over 30 years ago, and with that, their name changed to Mixografia.
