ANXIETY (2009)

Mezzotint 75x100mm, from an edition of 10

This print signifies a change of direction in my art - While I was over in Glasgow the recession had just kicked in. It was a time of uncertainty and growing unemployment which in affect created an apprehensive environment. Glasgow was hit very hard. I walked by closing shops and businesses on a daily basis. These works window the anxiety felt by many. 'Agitated', 'Apprehension', 'Appetence', 'Animosity' and 'The New Acquistion' were all made around this time.

Labels: mezzotint

Hello, I am a print artist based in New Zealand. I prefer to work in Mezzotint, a time consuming but highly rewarding process. My work is largely influenced by folklore and illustrated books from my childhood. My late grandmother was also an inspirational figure as she told me fairytales that have remained deep in my psyche and instigated a need to vocalise with imagery issues important to me. These images characterise some of the myriad emotions that make us human.
