We are thrilled to work with Charlene Vickers to bring to you, our next multiple. Through her generosity, “Fish in Astral Projection under Moons”, presents an exquisite translation of Vickers’ textiles that is truly unique as a print form and artwork. Vickers generosity of time within her work, is personal and exemplifies for us once more, what can be possible by allowing her story, to dream itself into being.

Vicker’s edition is a six plate, seven colour intaglio print, including chine collé and hand colouring, printed by master printer Peter Braune and Sarah Madgin at New Leaf Editions. This print was produced using a technique called soft ground lift, where the texture of fabrics (felt, foam and cloth) selected by Vickers and her hand sewing was transferred into the soft ground and then etched into the plate. The fish silhouette is a copper plate cut into the shape of the fish and aquatinted to achieve the rich black colour and texture. The final piece to this work is the addition of a button that is hand sewn to the printing paper.

This exciting new limited edition print will be available for purchase at the opening of the PATHS' exhibition on Saturday, September 24, 2022 at the Gordon Smith Gallery!
