WILD INK HYBRIDS

WILD INK HYBRIDS

During lockdown I have been very engrossed in nature - watching it get on with things regardless of our human tragedy.
I have taken to foraging in and around my beautiful rural studio in Marsworth and have found many rewarding things to make into my own home-made inks.
Here is an image that uses the wonderful colours that nature offers, for free, with an etching plate called Das Heimlich.

The word is German and translates as a sort of cosy home – the opposite of the Freudian concept of the Uncanny and evokes a place of safely and the memory of being safe and protected. This psychological concept mixed with the heightened awareness of nature all around me and the potential beauty of the coloured inks that can be produced in the studio.
