About the artwork
Float mounted so unframed and framed dimensions are the same My art explores the uncompromising cycle of life, the fragility of existence and the passing of time. I use the cyanotype printing process as I love the fact that cyanotypes are created in partnership with nature allowing chance and the weather to collaborate in the process. This cyanotype, Large Blue, celebrates the Large Blue butterfly which is one of the rarest butterflies in the UK due to loss of habitat. Gold paint was applied to plants in order to print directly onto the cyanotype to emphasise the importance of specific environments for endangered species.
