In her 1996 monoprint on paper, Ann Woodward presents us with a wonderfully experimental print, depicting long strands of straw on an opaque background. The work is composed so that the left side is black, with the form of the straw created from an absence in ink. On the right side, the form of the straw emerges boldly, rendered in black against the white colour of the paper. Woodward’s work recalls for us, the iconic symbol of the yin and yang, which shows opposites in equilibrium.

This work is in many ways ephemeral: its subject matter is fleeting, the sway of long grass captured in print. As a monotype, this work is also entirely unique - a one of a kind print. Thoughtful and rare, this work would make an excellent addition to the collection of anyone fascinated by nature, printmaking, and the ephemeral.
