Studio

A contemporary screenprinting practice shaped by process, material, chance and the physical qualities of print — moving between works on paper, installation and design.

Screenprinting is at the centre of the studio, but the work moves beyond paper.

 

The same approach to colour, layering, rhythm and surface can become an artwork for a collection, a site-specific intervention, or a visual response to architecture, an object, product or brand — extending into areas such as textiles, packaging and visual design.

Works on paper

 

Every print is a physical object.

Screenprinting allows colour, opacity, texture and registration to remain visible in the finished work. Paper becomes part of the image, while imperfections and variations give each work a physical presence.

The process is deliberately open-ended. A print can change direction because of a small shift in registration, a different ink mix or an unexpected interaction between layers.


From paper to Space

 

The scale changes, but the way of thinking doesn’t.

The same interest in layering, rhythm, colour and surface can move from a small work on paper into an architectural environment.


Commissions

 

Bespoke work can be developed for a collection, interior, architectural project or commercial commission.

The studio works with collectors, art consultants, architects, interior designers, developers, cultural organisations and brands.

Projects can begin with an existing body of work or with a new idea developed specifically for the space.
