Smoking Girl
This 3 layer woodcut reduction was inspired by an iconic LP cover and I have tried to combine a traditional aesthetic with a modern Vietnamese style. The building in the background is instantly recognisable as the Bitexco in HCMC and I have manipulated the grain of the wood to show the rain interfering with the patterns of the smoke from the girl's cigarette.

Smoking Girl
This print is a 3 layer woodcut reduction print made from a pinewood shelving woodblock roughly 15 x 20cm. The grain patterns have been utilised to imitate a Saigon rainy season and it is printed onto 'Giay Dzo' with a 'So Diep' coating. This is locally sourced, handmade paper made from the bark of the Dzo tree and lightly dusted with a clam shell coating for a unique shiny finish.
