For more than thirty years I have explored materials through printmaking, textiles, painting and installation. I began my art practise as a printmaker, and in recent years I have returned to print processes, using the detritus of industry to make my work.
My ‘Outsourcing’ series of collagraph prints examines the clothing industries practise of outsourcing garment manufacturing to poorer countries. Unpicking linings, tugging apart layers and discovering strange interiors, I have deconstructed leather clothing and printed the individual pattern pieces. Oily ink translates the imprints of skin (animal and human), and of the work of those that handled, stitched, wore and fondled it.
