R&F Mo, Woanderer, 2025
Linocut with hand-colouring, 28.5 × 42cm, V/E of 4
R&F Mo’s multi-faceted practice explores connections between the seen, the sensed and the dreamed. Playful and otherworldly, Mo’s paintings, works on paper, and theatrical enactments often feature ‘the Woanderer’, a unique, horse-headed creature that navigates imaginary landscapes whilst exploring the notion of identity.
Performance is a constant thread that weaves through Mo’s practice whether the work is studio-based or presented through a character acting in costume. Fantastical figures and beasts inhabit Mo’s vibrant worlds, telling unfinished stories that– in the artist’s words - ‘reference alternative beings and multiple dimensions, allowing the unconscious to come into play’.
This vivid, unframed linocut is one of a new set of four hand-coloured variable prints by Mo, meaning that each print in the edition is slightly different. These new works launched at the 2025 Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair.
Mo studied at City and Guilds, London, graduating in 1980, followed by the Royal College of Art, London, graduating in 1984. An MFA and PhD followed at Central St. Martin’s, London (2004) and University of the Arts, London (2011) respectively. Mo co-authored Performance Drawing (Bloomsbury 2020) and took part in the Performance Drawing 2021 residency at The Centre for Recent Drawing, London. Works have recently been exhibited in A History of Drawing, Camberwell Space (2018), the TBW Drawing prize 2020, and the Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition (2021 and 2022). Mo lives and works in south east London.
