About the Item
It is certainly the most appropriate translation of Pascale Hémery’s work, which takes a look at the places visited on a daily basis and during her travels abroad. This look is the simplification of lines, materials, spaces, everything that surrounds us that is both anecdotal and deep, if we stop there. The city in particular arouses a real creative excitement by the diversity of its forms but also its ambivalence.
Her work aims to reveal its underlying beauty, elusive at first glance.
From New York to Naples, from Madrid to Dublin or of course in Paris where she lives, the artist has forged a way of apprehending natural light that she transcribes by a simple play of primary colors. The engraved wood allows the accentuation of contrasts, and the simplification of a composition. It has become her technique par excellence that she develops «with lost wood», destroying with each new color, the previous step. This process of self-destruction of the work does not give right to error and forces a concentration without strolling. Quite the opposite of the spectator’s gaze, forced to get lost in the alleys, roofs and windows lit by an invisible intimacy.
In these years when travel is becoming scarce, Pascale Hémery receives a commission from the bibliophile society Les Cent Une. For the 50th artist’s book of this 100% female organization, it is the Rue de Rivoli that serves as the rails for Henri Troyat’s texts. Pascale Hémery admirably takes up the challenge of illustrating with linocuts the poetic journey of the academician, creating herself an architectural and historical journey on all the pages of the book. It is an engraved escape, a motionless journey, but above all a breath of fresh air.

- 'Monday in Wick Haven' original linoleum cut print by Howard ThomasBy Howard ThomasLocated in Milwaukee, WIIn this image, Howard Thomas presents the viewer with a domestic interior. The image is dominated by the figure of a black woman, resting her arm on an ironing board. To the right, the tool of her task dangles a chord above a checker tiled floor. Beyond, though a window, neighboring homes fill the landscape. The careful line-work of the linocut adds a sense of expressionism to the scene, but the image nonetheless falls into the Social Realism that captivated most American artists during the Great Depression. This print was published in 1936 as part of the Wisconsin Artists' Calendar for the year 1937, which included 52 original, hand-made prints – one for each week of the year. 6 x 5 inches, image 10 x 7.13 inches, sheet 12.37 x 12.43 inches, frame Entitled "Monday in Wick Haven" lower left (covered by matting) Inscribed "Linoleum Cut" lower center (covered by matting) Artist name "Howard Thomas" lower right (covered by matting) Framed to conservation standards using 100 percent rag matting and museum glass, all housed in a silver gilded moulding. Quaker-born in Ohio, Thomas trained in the Midwest at Ohio State University and the Chicago Art Institute. He taught in the Art Department of the Milwaukee State Teachers College (now University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee) where he became good friends with Carl Holty, Edward Boerner, Robert von Neumann...Category

On one side is the heathland and woodland, and on the other are marshes and the sea, making this village rich in wildlife. Jo Padfield, printmaker and artist, is available for sale online and in our gallery at Wychwood Art. Jo Padfield is an artist based in rural Norfolk - I love the natural world and my work celebrates nature and the natural environment, using bright vibrant colours and bold eye catching shapes and patterns.
