Heals Residency 2011


Past - Present - Future: Heals residency
29th Jan-6th Feb 2011

I will be creating a series of monoprints using the Totteham court road window as the inking plate. Monoprinting has been part of my practice for some time, and I will be using the residency to explore ideas around memory and trace, using imagery from C18th and C19th portraiture as the figurative reference. The aim is to make the prints life size, using the maximum surface of the window. It will be quite an experimental week, bringing a studio practice into a public space, and I am really excited to see how the prints develop as I respond the physical structure of the Heals front window. I will keep the blog posted with updates during the week.
