Emans91 — Todo Pasa, a Moment in Print

An artwork about passing emotions becomes a new limited edition, releasing at Contemporary Stuff on 15 November.

A single tear, dark contours and a restrained palette of blues. In Todo Pasa, Emans91 brings an intimate feeling into close view, giving it a graphic presence that is immediately recognisable.

Created while the artist was in Buenos Aires, the work takes its title from the Spanish expression meaning “everything passes”. Alongside the tear, those words can be read as a quiet reassurance: even the feelings that seem to occupy everything will eventually change. The image leaves the circumstances untold, allowing viewers to recognise something of their own experience within it.

Our collaboration with Emans91 grew from a close creative exchange around this work. Together with Naples-based studio Pressa Dopolavoro, we have translated Todo Pasa into a five-colour screenprint, produced in an edition of 25 copies, each signed and numbered by the artist and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

Naples also became part of the project beyond the print studio. To mark the collaboration, we produced the image as a street poster and pasted it up at the Montesanto steps, a public stairway in the city. Against worn plaster, its bold lines and solitary tear became part of the everyday movement of the city, open to anyone passing through.

These two forms offer different encounters with the same image. On the wall, the paper takes on folds and the texture of its surroundings. In an edition, the composition invites sustained attention: a chance to return to its shapes, its expression and the relationship between the tear and the title.

Todo Pasa by Emans91 will be released on Sunday 15 November 2026 at 17:00 CET, through contemporarystuff.net.
