Cressida is an artist who works primarily in digital print and paper. After graduating with a BA (Hons) in Jewellery and Silversmithing from Middlesex University, she ran a successful design recruitment business in the fashion industry for 22 years. In 2018, she decided to pursue her passion for printmaking.
Working mainly with geometric shapes and primarily in monochrome, Cressida plays with optical illusion and depth perception to create a sense of three-dimensional space within two-dimensional media. Her background in design gives her work a bold, structural quality but also radiates a feeling of lightness and calm.
