Catherine Greenwood - Möbius Wave
19 x 48 cm, etching, sugarlift aquatint, 2020
This etching was printed from a large zinc plate on silk as a Triptych series. The images were built up in layers using an innovative resist application of sugar-lift aquatint and drawing directly into aquatint creating inverse positive and negative combinations of the wave scape form using a giant Japanese brush.
