Monotype on hand-made Indian paper, 28.5 x 25.5cm
South Africa-born artist Tamsin Relly moved to London in 2009 and received her MA in Fine Art at City & Guilds of London Art School in 2011. Her multi-disciplinary practice, which includes painting, printmaking and photography, reflects on our shifting global climate, and considers the erasure and construction of wilderness.
This unframed print is one of an ongoing series of monotypes printed using leaves and dried flowers in rural Cornwall and central London. As is constant in Tamsin's practice, the man-made is in dialogue with the natural world; the artist has worked with domestic plant leaves as well as wild flowers, printing directly from the inked-up specimen as well as (in this case) the ink left on the printing plate after the leaf’s removal. This vibrant work is printed onto blue, hand-made Indian paper which heightens the unusual silhouette of the Ginko leaves, revealing delicately subtle details as if by magic.
Purchased works are usually despatched within three working days.
