Still Water

By  Rachel Gibson 2012 - 2014

Rachel Gibson

I am interested in experimenting with materials to create a quality of surface that 'suggests' imagery. This is an exploration of material and process that acts as a physical link between thought, experience and language. Constant layering and relayering of washes and marks are a form of archaeology. The surface carries its own history.
