Alice Macdonald, Time Stands Still for a Moment (3), 2023

£725.00

Monoprint with etching, 55.5 x 76cm

This new monoprint is part of a small variable edition of four plus two artist’s proofs. These works are based on drawings from life and then printed using copper and tetra-pack plates; this technique allows the artist to play around with the positioning of various components in the composition so that each print in the series is unique. The initial drawings for ‘Time Stands Still for a Moment’ were made during a camping holiday in Suffolk:

‘I woke up quite early and saw the horse in the next door field; I was fascinated by the exercise machine it was in - like a treadmill. The horse was going round and round in circles.

Around the same time I was reading a book by Carlo Rovelli about time. He talks about time being change - changes are a marker of time. I was thinking about this as I watched the horse go round and round repetitively. If nothing changes, does time stop?’.

Purchased works are usually despatched within three working days.
