Lace print - Slava Ukraini
Lace print - Slava Ukraini
Produced for Ukraine from past to future, a celebration of Ukrainian art and culture, with UK and Ukrainian artists.
I worked with The Cowper & Newton Museum in Olney, and made some work inspired by their extensive and beautiful antique collection.
Ukrainian people say this work reminds them of Ukrainian lace, so I made this piece specially for the exhibition.
The print is based on Ukrainian White Work Lace showing stylised sunflowers and ears of wheat, the leaves and flowers are Viburnum (Guelder Rose) the national shrub of Ukraine which symbolises rebirth and infinity of life in their culture.
It is named Slava Ukraini - in memory of Y.
(Glory To Ukraine, in memory of a lovely person who went To Ukraine to help and didn’t come back.)
Printed on Somerset 300gsm paper.
