Across her work, vivid narratives unfold through complex compositions, with finely rendered imagery often drawing on layered histories, cultural memory and the stories of the past. Rich with evocative symbolism and unexpected detail, Manifold’s prints invite close and sustained looking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn her 2014 linocut series 'French Threads – For My Children’s Children', Manifold constructs a highly imaginative world populated by symbolic motifs and enigmatic figures. At its centre, a female figure appears as though she has stepped from the pages of a historical tale. Dressed in an elaborate gown, her face is obscured, creating a striking sense of mystery while heightening the work’s dreamlike and narrative quality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWidely recognised for her exceptional printmaking practice, Manifold’s work is held in private and public collections across Australia, including the National Gallery of Australia, the Art Gallery of Ballarat and the State Library of Victoria. She has been selected as a finalist in several national art prizes and has exhibited extensively in solo and group exhibitions throughout Australia and France. For those drawn to works that weave together history, imagination and symbolism, Manifold’s prints offer a richly rewarding discovery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/collections\/marion-manifold\"\u003eMarion MANIFOLD\u003c\/a\u003e (1954 - )\u003cbr\u003e'French Threads - For My Children's Children' 2014\u003cbr\u003elinocut on paper with embroidered thread and beads.\u003cbr\u003eEdition of 15\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eImage Size\u003c\/i\u003e: 65 x 50 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDimensions\u003c\/i\u003e: 72 x 56 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSigned\u003c\/i\u003e: Editioned, signed and dated below image.\u003cbr\u003eComes with Letter of Provenance\u003cbr\u003eCondition:\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(c) The Artist or Assignee\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"small","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46457339281478,"sku":null,"price":2800.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0499\/8229\/files\/manifold-marion-french-threads-for-18273_ab48ae93-28d8-41d9-ab1c-7befe07f00c6.jpg?v=1787876092","url":"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/products\/manifold-marion-french-threads-for-18273","provider":"Art and Collectors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
