Abstract
This flag book accordion titled ‘overlays’ (2019), investigates ideas about identity and memory associated with screen printed halftone dots within a book form.
Instead of being concerned with the appearance of the source material, I have become intrigued by the spaces in-between the printed half-tone, that essentially break apart the image, creating pop-ups and book folds, that magnify imagery beyond recognition.
Disintegrating a familiar image through this magnification, creates a unique and unfamiliar perspective. The sequential order of the representational image breaking down refers to the way each time we recall an event, or a memory our brains distort it.
'Overlays' was shortlisted at an internationally significant Printmaking exhibition in Australia during 2020. This Pre-selected online exhibition attracted works from all over the world, devoted to screenprinting with a small shortlist on 40 artists on show.
2020 'Screen on Paper', International online Exhibition, Megalo Print Studio + Gallery, Canberra, ACT. Australia. 28 June – 26 July 2020
