Quiet Cul-de-Sac

During my residency at Cleland Wildlife Park, I had the privilege of observing these beautiful finches and learning about the threats they face, primarily habitat loss. The torn sections of the print symbolizes the loss of hábitat for our birdlife. The reduction printmaking process echoes this situation; as each layer of colour is added the lino block is destroyed, so that the artwork becomes a limited edition, never to be reproduced.
