Curator Iva Svabic-Cannon writes:
‘TAKE 5 – the exhibition title, works well on a subtle conceptual level because Brubeck’s track uses an unusual rhythm – and we all have an unusual approach to printmaking. The unusual rhythm echoing our different ways of working!
Martine prints from ‘found’ weathered wood which echoes the textures of tidal landscapes and combines this with layers of images produced from the processes of woodcut and photopolymer. The landscape of the Severn Estuary is a particular inspiration
Ben Goodman takes an influence of the human figure from the medieval panel painters to contemporary printmakers & painters. Blending oil painting and printmaking techniques, he uses engraving to build up multi-layered prints which resemble miniature paintings.
With an experimental approach to relief printmaking, Lee Nutland explores the underlying fragility of things perceived to be permanent. Lee creates simple and ghostly landscapes inspired by prehistoric stone monuments.
Ruth Ander’s painterly and mixed media approach to printmaking creates expressive one-off works on paper. Combining hand mono print, dry point etching and collage, she makes atmospheric land and seascapes.
I, Iva create linocuts in an expressive and energetic way. Most of my images are abstract, with a dynamic interplay of lines and patterns. My aim is to transform the simplest scene into an experience. Come and enjoy the works we are showing at HOURS.’
