{"product_id":"banfield-elizabeth-the-transformation-18233","title":"Elizabeth Banfield 'the transformation'","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 ‘the transformation’, Banfield creates an abstracted work layered in organic lines, contrasting colours, and patterns derived from nature. Highly textured and detailed with fine yellow stitching, this print is instantly intriguing, with Banfield seemingly creating the impression of a DNA double helix. Aligning to her personal artistic vision, Banfield's 'the transformation' highlights the endless and simplistic beauty found in the everyday.\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'the transformation' 2015\u003cbr\u003eLinocut and Awagami Tengucho tissue stitched to Somerset 300gsm\u003cbr\u003eEdition of 10\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eImage Size\u003c\/i\u003e: 61 x 30 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDimensions\u003c\/i\u003e: 72 x 40 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSigned\u003c\/i\u003e: Signed and inscribed with title, date and edition below image.\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":46127742222406,"sku":null,"price":600.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0499\/8229\/files\/banfield-elizabeth-the-transformation-18233.jpg?v=1786510922","url":"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/products\/banfield-elizabeth-the-transformation-18233","provider":"Art and Collectors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
