Prudence Ainslie – Descent

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Prudence Ainslie is primarily a printmaker. She documents places with the intention of re-analysing the act of seeing. For her the viewing experience is absorbed through process and the re-working of multiple media – By folding, layering, and abstracting to create subtle illusions and construct tangible worlds that allude to the original space. There is an interrogation of the fluctuation between the reading of the two-dimensional and three-dimensional.

Her images often bring together the traditional 20th century woodcut and contemporary digital printing methods, exploiting the subtle layering of contrasting print media.
