Sun Factor

Softground etching, chine collé, screenprint. This work explores ancient and modern ideas of sun worship and the rituals that are part of these cultures. Etching for the ancient cliffs and the figures are screen printed in high saturation, a reminder of the early days of package holidays and glossy postcards and also of skin damage and loss of connection to the powers of nature. The sun as apocalyptic fireball is a reminder of its true nature.
