A Tapestry of Memories
A woodcut collaboration with London based artist Rich Saenz. This print is capturing the nostalgic feelings we experience when looking at old photographs. We each chose 2 photos from our childhood and worked them together into this tapestry of joint memories. Richard drew up the original plans then I re-worked them and carved out the block (with help from Rich). We both took it in turns to print each different blend of ink allowing intuition to decide which colour to use and where.
Hand burnished woodcut reduction print.
