Littoral Flow, 2021
Stone Lithograph and Monoprint on Somerset Newsprint paper.
Using a combination of lithographic drawing and monoprint, traces of sediment and water intersect and interconnect to show a section of The Mersey River. The lithograph edition is hand draw and printed from stone before an individual trace monoprint is created over each print.
Through a process of extraction and reconstruction, analogue processes of drawing and print are used to decode digital interpretations of existing bathymetric
data. Through this data we can extend, condense, distort and re-interpret our environment shaping our relationship to the land around us. Littoral Flow echo’s the geological and dynamic force of the river using drawing materials such as tusche and carbon to embody sensitive responses to dilution and saturation.
