Green Bikini

£150.00 Sale Save
Green Bikini is taken from Daisy Jarrett’s most recent series which predominately takes images from Instagram and explores the impact of social media on body image, both in a positive and negative way. Using Calico safe wash inks, Daisy paints her images quickly and spontaneously onto the back of old etching plates. She then uses water to loosen the inks to create a texture more akin to watercolour than print, occasionally using a cloth or rag to wipe away some of the ink to obscure the image even more. Once the artist is happy with the image on the plate, damp paper is placed on top before being put through a table-top etching press. Because of the nature of how Daisy works, she never truly knows how it will come out as a final print and believes the happy accidents is what makes the prints unique.
