‘Between The Sheets: Artists’ Books 2019′

My artist book, ‘After A Time’ has been included in ‘Between The Sheets: Artists’ Books 2019′. The exhibition runs from August 30 until September 21 at Gallery Central, Perth, Western Australia. I created this unique state book using linocut, collage, hand painting and marker pen. It was bound using single sheet coptic binding.

I have had over 40 years of experience as a professional artist in Australia and Italy working in the media of serigraphy, painting, collage, ceramic and relief printmaking. From 2012 I have concentrated entirely on linocut. I feel that linocut, whilst a simple and direct printmaking technique, offers endless aesthetic possibilities. It has a robust physicality and despite the considered nature of printmaking the results for me appear spontaneous and immediate.
