Nepal Archive 2014

Nepal Archive 2014

The Nepal Archive is a project of Monotypes on found paper. When I came back from the trip to Nepal new shapes, colours and aesthetics became part of my practice so I wanted to honour them by generating this body of work.

I still remember very well the people I have met, the wonderful places I have seen and the smells that filled up my journey.

Canvas 2014 it’s a small body of work made back in 2014 in Australia when I first arrived. It’s a sort of a new alphabet of shapes and tones that I was trying to put together. They are all Monotypes of canvas printed with all natural pigments I was finding along my walks in Margaret River, Western Australia.

Ink & Thread – DADAA

Ink and Thread is run by the Art Director of DADAA Julie Barratt and coordinated by Francesco Geronazzo, artist printmaker founder of Margaret River Printmaking. It’s a project spread in 3 years that aims to connect, empower and improve regional communities through the arts.

Printmaking is the main medium although combining other processes with it will be a priority to expand the quality of the outcomes.

The project started officially in July even though in April 2023 we had some important meetings with DADAA Lancelin, West Australian Opera, North Midland Project and the Historical society of Carnamah.
