About The Artwork

Details: Limited edition of 5 Signed and numbered on the front Screenprint with pigment and ink on 280gsm Somerset velvet newsprint grey paper with a deckled edge 42 x 56cm Unframed About: Inspired by a trip to Norway and the earthy tones and puddle shapes in the natural elements of the Norwegian fjords and mountains. Negative space has been used to embody the calmness experienced being outdoors in nature and a space to pause, which also emanates the Japanese concept, 'ma' - negative space is seen as a positive, creating serenity and balance. This concept extends from zen gardens, the space between objects as light and shadows, to sound and silence. This contemporary landscape art print on Somerset velvet newsprint grey paper was hand pulled by the artist in her Brighton printmaking studio. Technique: This print was created by assembling a digital collage made up of layers of photographs taken on a trip to Norway, before being taken into the print studio. The image was printed on a transparency and a mesh screen was coated in a light sensitive emulsion, which was left to dry in a dark room. When dry, the image was exposed onto the screen using UV light, with the black parts of the image blocking out the light, meaning that the emulsion didn’t harden on the darker parts of the image. The screen was then washed to remove any unexposed emulsion, leaving the image on the screen to be printed. Paint was mixed with printing medium and a squeegee was hand pulled to push the ink through the mesh on the areas of the exposed image onto paper to create the finished screenprint.

Sherrie-Leigh Jones is an Artist and Printmaker based in Brighton, East Sussex. She creates limited edition and original landscape prints inspired by nature and changing seasons, offering the viewer a sense of escapism, a transportation to a new place and a journey through imagined landscapes. The Japanese woodblock printmaking movement known as Shin-hanga (New prints) and Sansuiga (Japan) or Shanshui (China); paintings which depict an idealised landscape using the forms of mountains, rivers, clouds and mist, inspire her prints. Mountainous landscapes and the romantic sublime also influence her work. To create her prints, she assembles collages using her travel photographs and photos taken on walks in the English countryside, which are then combined with paintings and occasionally found imagery. The finished compositions are then taken into the print studio to be exposed on screens and hand pulled as screenprints, resulting in the final artworks. Some prints are also hand printed using the cellulose transfer printing technique. Read more about the techniques used here. Jones exhibits in the UK and internationally, including the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2021. Her work is held in Jeremy Cooper's Collection and private collections in the UK, France, Germany, Taiwan, New York and L.A. In 2020, she was awarded an a-n Bursary: Time Space Money, supported by a-n The Artists Information Company and Arts Council England, and in 2018 was invited to be a part of Woolwich Contemporary Editions. In 2015, Jones was awarded a Print Futures Award and in 2013, her SS13 collaboration with fashion label, To Be Adored (tba), featured on the front cover of Grazia China.
