Printmaking

Following her studies at Newcastle University, Hannah’s practice became primarily print based. She is interested in working with a variety of processes but is particularly drawn to woodcut prints. This includes hand carved prints using tools such as those pictured on the right, but also using a lasercutter to create print plates and assets.

Interested in combining processes, she frequently utilises found objects and challenges the crossovers of print and sculpture.

Hannah has also worked extensively with cyanotype prints, largely in 2020 through the lockdown period where she was able to create these at home. The body of work below was created by laying resin cast sculptures over the top of the light sensitive cyanotype paper.

Other print based work in her portfolio includes etching, lino cut prints and screen prints.

Glyptotek Etchings

These etchings were created at Northern Print during a bursary project. The imagery is inspired by an exhibit at Glyptotek Museum, Copenhagen. The museum housing a large collection of ancient marble and stone sculptures. Many of these had been damaged over years and during the Victorian era, were ‘repaired’ with hasty plaster additions. Much of the damage was facial features such as ears, noses etc. In more recent history, the decision was made to reinstate the sculptures to their original and unalteread state. This included removal of any dodgy victorian nose jobs. The victorian plaster was displayed all together in one case and led to a curious collection, visible
