burnished aquatint
edition of 20
This is a series of five handmade artist’s books; charcoal, graphite, screenprint and intaglio on paper; leather, cardboard and cotton.
In her catalogue essay for the exhibition From this Distance 2008, Jane Devery writes: Combining drawing, intaglio and screen print processes, the pages of these journals are densely textured and contain a complex layering of images and text. An archive of memories, emotions and experiences, they provide an insight into her subconscious, revealing the scope of her personal symbology.
