Monochrome - work by Heather Evans

 

Heather has done a lot of research into the photographic cyanotype process which was first discovered by Sir John Herschel in 1846. She has tried to manipulate this process to create an abstract impressionistic effect which reflects her style.

For the Out of the Fold 'Monochrome' exhibition Heather has used cyanotype and dyed fabrics to create a series of work. Her inspiration came from the sea and looking at the work of Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, abstract artist (1912 - 2004) and the work of Peter Green, painter and printmaker.

To see all of Heather's work please come along to the exhibition at the Pond Gallery, Snape Maltings IP17 1SP from 30th Sept until 5th October 2022
