The imagery of LEONARD EDMONDSON invokes dreams of
'almost remembered' forms, feelings and spaces. From dense
fabrics of complex lines - laid in and scratched out - to misty ethers
with elusive semi-figures, the artist creates visual mysteries,
queries, enigmas.
Edmondson - whether in prints, drawings or paintings - uses innovative materials and methods. In Curiouser and Curiouser, he uses a hole punch and a sharp stylus dragged across the sheet to create a complex sense of texture and depth. Similar textures are achieved in his paintings and prints.
Our exhibition focuses upon
Edmondson’s printmaking. Etching was his passion; he employed the
technique of viscosity etching, influenced by Stanley William
Hayter. His screenprints, woodcuts and lithographs are equally
successful. Examples of each of these techniques are also offered.
