Fine Art Printmaking BA (Hons)

Open 4-9 June 2011

From 4 to 9 June 2011, exhibits from
more than 500 students will transform
the Faculty of Arts' Grand Parade campus into the biggest gallery in the south-
east of the UK.

With two buildings and three-floors of gallery space to explore, over 15,000 visitors will discover the work of the class of 2011: perhaps taking the opportunity to commission work or compile a collection before students emerge as leading lights in their chosen discipline.

Artist Statement

I am an artist currently based in Lewes East Sussex. My work deals with geometric abstraction, my ideas are centred on uniting abstract languages with sacred geometric concepts arranged to achieve harmony and balance between surface, colour, and form.

I use printmaking techniques such as aquatint, monotype, etching and woodcut. I am now in the process of developing ideas while trying to grasp the complexity behind such concepts and its relationship.

I am interested in how the characteristics of the inks influence the surface and become part of the visual vivacity of the final image.
