Photopolymer gravure, 48 x 39cm, edition of 10
Suzanne Moxhay’s complex images use archival or newly-taken photographs as their starting point. Combining a variety of low and high-tech techniques, her digital photomontages and etchings explore interior and exterior spaces that, in the artist’s words, ‘feel as though they have broken down and perhaps been re-claimed’.
Suzanne’s practice is informed by the theatre of film-making, and strong light sources play a key role in creating drama. New life is breathed into deserted scenes by encroaching foliage or startled birds; often an uneasy sense of stillness prevails. Despite her focus upon digital techniques, Suzanne’s images retain a painterly quality achieved through layering and manipulation of textures. The resulting works fuse the real with the imagined, drawing the viewer into spaces that feel intimate and often a little unsettling. The photopolymer gravure technique used to produce this unframed print replaces the traditional acid-based method of etching, resulting in rich, monochrome works with depth and atmosphere.
Some limited edition prints are printed to order. Please let us know if you need your purchase quickly.
