Liliane Lijin, Black Koran, Etching
Helen Fay, Cormorant, Drypoint
Pale reflections in the glass of picture frames reveal the ghosts of bedroom and bathroom doors. As much as Helen Fay's Cormorant desires its creative independence the life of the world around it influences and corrupts. There is something complimentary in the subtle tones of brick and the inky black and white of these prints.

A walk along the corridor is an exploration in printing techniques; Lithographs, Etchings, Drypoint, Monoprint, and Screenprints. As these women represent themselves they also represent the breadth of their medium. I won't go in to a description of the various techniques here as that is the job of Wikipedia.
The pictures below will offer an insight in to the range of prints on display from wistful fairy tales, to bright dream-scapes and dark brooding landscapes.

You have a really awesome blog that I HAVE to follow.
ReplyDeleteThank you Shayla, I hope you enjoy my future posts!
ReplyDeleteHow lucky you are to wander along these corridors with your laundry! I am thinking of taking a course in printmaking. I would like to learn more than my self-taught current knowledge. Jude would be proud :-)
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely take the course, it is one of things I would love to do eventually. If I could make my own etching, i think that would make my year. Jude would be proud.
