{"product_id":"banfield-elizabeth-fragments-of-a-storm-18232","title":"Elizabeth Banfield 'fragments of a storm diary'","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn intricate lines, and layers of pattern and colour, Elizabeth Banfield constructs a portrait of nature which is wonderfully detailed, and entirely personal. What begins as a vein of a leaf, or a piece of bark, transforms into a topographical landscape - an intimate portrayal of nature, as experienced through the artist’s eyes. Banfield, a renowned printmaker and artist, incorporates both fine-line linocut and hand-stitching in her practice, often stitching pieces of delicate tissue paper together to create her works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn ‘fragments of a storm diary', Banfield creates the vivid and turbulent impression of nature in the wake of a storm. In variations of line, colour and patterns derived from nature, Banfield's print is energetically layered. A departure from the artist's usual quiet meditations on natural forms, this work is alive with frenetic energy - a celebration of the beauty found in the chaos of the natural world. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSince graduating from the South Australian School of Art in 1984, Banfield has exhibited extensively in Australia and internationally. Her works are held within several public and private collections both in Australia and overseas, including the Art Gallery of South Australia, the National Library of Australia, and the Brooklyn Art Library in New York. Banfield has also been selected as a finalist in several national print prizes. For collectors of contemporary prints, or those fascinated by enigmatic impressions of the natural world, Banfield’s works are a joy to discover.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/collections\/elizabeth-banfield\"\u003eElizabeth BANFIELD\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'fragments of a storm diary' 2023\u003cbr\u003eMulti-block linocut on Awagami Mingeishi paper.\u003cbr\u003eEdition of 57\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eImage Size\u003c\/i\u003e: 38 x 28 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDimensions\u003c\/i\u003e: 57 x 47 x 4 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSigned\u003c\/i\u003e: Signed and edition lower left corner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComes with Letter of Provenance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition:\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(c) The Artist or Assignee\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"small","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46127742156870,"sku":null,"price":700.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0499\/8229\/files\/banfield-elizabeth-fragments-of-a-storm-18232-detail2.jpg?v=1786510922","url":"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/products\/banfield-elizabeth-fragments-of-a-storm-18232","provider":"Art and Collectors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
