Anna’s work explores the powerful spiritual resonance of historical sacred
buildings and their setting in the landscape. She loves combining the
representational imagery of soaring monumental structures of ancient abbeys
and churches with the intricate and complex patterns and rhythms of their
decorative features.
Using etching and collagraph printmaking techniques and a colourful palette, I
seek to bring to life the powerful geometry of the often faded motifs and time-
worn patterns and symbols of historic artefacts found in the masonry and
ancient tiles of these sacred sites. My final prints explore and record the dynamic
rhythms of three-dimensional architectural form, layered with their decorative
and symbolic adornment in a graphic expression of awe and wonder.
