Photo-Etchings from Strange the rooms...


The Pound - Portmagee 1965 2009



Valentia Ferry -1965 2009


Nightstown -2009

From series of sixteen four-plate colour photo-etchings

“The artist wonders if the world was a different colour in 1967. She has pored over photographs from the time, isolating small sections in which patches of colour seem to vibrate on a different wavelength. Employing a laborious four-colour intaglio photo-etching process, she has set out, not to reproduce images but to remake those vibrations of colour as she imagines they might have been. The resulting etchings appear both as prints, and as projections onto objects, sites, buildings.”
