Crossing Lines - Exhibition
2026-05-14 10:00 - 2026-05-20 17:00 | The Aldeburgh Gallery, High Street, Aldeburgh, United Kingdom
Crossing Lines, as the name suggests, blurs the boundaries between Digital Art and traditional Printmaking.
With a background in graphic design, it is almost inevitable that my art starts on a computer screen where I can experiment with, and adjust, images before committing them to paper. Once satisfied, I convert the designs to silk screen stencils (one for each colour) and then hand-print them onto paper.
While I enjoy the complexity of digital art, I really like the unavoidable inconsistency of hand-printing, which makes each piece unique and original.

This exhibition also includes new work by acclaimed printmaker, Ni Gooding.

Meet the Artists – Join us for a glass of wine and nibbles on Saturday 16th May, 12pm – 3pm.
