Breathe - mounted print by Elizabeth Fraser
Breathe - mounted print by Elizabeth Fraser
This letterpress print uses the backs of wood type to create an almost architectural environment.
The words MAKE SPACE TO are tightly bound in a little gap.
The word B R E A T H E calmly spreads out into a larger unprinted area at the bottom.
As we all have busy, stressful and, at the moment restricted, lives this little print in a lovely variable range of soft to dark denim blue reminds us to gently exhale and recenter.
This is presented in an A4 mount.
About the Artist
Elizabeth Fraser is an artist printmaker experimenting with the analogue processes of hand set letterpress type and linocut from her Cambridgeshire garden studio. Inspired by the invisible connections and structures that verbal and written language make in our lives she uses colour, pattern and space to create her playful work. Elizabeth also has an interest in using art as a means to explore and engage with science to create greater understanding and appreciation of their shared basis of creative enquiry.
