RECOGNITION
Born 1970 in Glasgow, Scotland. Lives and works in Paris, France. Andrew Forrester's latest prints are derived from subjects as diverse as mediaeval illuminated manuscripts, tessellation, science fiction and serial music. Forms are translated, rotated, reflected and glide reflected to create a complex, interrelated image generated from one or two initial motifs. The breakdown of the pattern at the edge of the work shows the structure and organization of each piece. There is no socio-political subtext to these artworks.
Education:
BA (Hons) Fine Art (Drawing & Painting) Glasgow School of Art 1988-92
Prize:
