Part of a limited edition run of fine art prints, this is KRISTIANSAND which is an exciting, colourful textile inspired by thin section imagery. The thin section was created by technician Iona Copely of the University of Aberdeen by filing the sample down to a very thin slice - this allowed us to investigate the optical properties of the sample through cross polarised light. I think thin section imagery is absolutely outstanding and after the success of my Granite thin section design, I’m very excited to have worked with this type of scientific imagery again.
All of my fine art prints are printed in the UK on Perlino Cotton paper. Perlino is an FSC® certified board made of 20% recycled material, 15% cotton fibres, and is fully recyclable. A luxurious, textured surface that is soft to the touch. It resembles similar qualities to watercolour/artist sketchbook paper.
All prints are sent out in a sealed, compostable cello bag backed with recycled greyboard to protect in transit.
'KRISTIANSAND' A4 Fine Art Print
This textile is part of the Tall Ships Collection, a project inspired by sand samples from the stops along the Tall Ship Race Route. April was one of 6 makers selected by Aberdeen Art Gallery to develop a body of work celebrating the Tall Ships Race returning to Aberdeen. Each Tall Ships Collection piece comes with its own limited edition label explaining the collection, and is currently only available through Aberdeen Art Gallery or in limited numbers from the Agate & Ayre webstore. Take a piece of the beach home!
