2010

About the Item

The single letter "O", illustrated by an Owl, from Kelvin Mann's bestiary animal alphabet. The full set of 26 etchings in folio box is available for $3500. Animals, real and imagined, populate this imaginative set of prints. More images available on request. Signed and numbered from the edition of 55. The sheet also features a small square with all 26 letters embossed by letterpress (see detail image). Born in 1972 in Dunedin, New Zealand. Educated at the Otago School of Fine Art, NZ. Employed as an animation artist by Vidmark Television, NZ from 1994-1996. In 1997 he moved to Dublin to become a member of the Graphic Studio Dublin. He has worked as a printmaker at Stoney Road Press in Dublin since 2002 and shows in Ireland, the United Kingdom, New Zealand and Australia. Artist Statement: "I enjoy mechanics and the exposed working of the machine. Machines that look like something from the industrial revolution, but poorly designed. It is as if they might have once existed, but didn’t stand the test of time. With the benefit of hindsight they were a ridiculous idea. I am fascinated by them, not so much the workings of them but that they work at all. Titles are important to me. I enjoy word play and visual puns. I like them to be amusing, not in a humourous sense, but to be engaging and hold the viewer’s interest in a W. Heath Robinson sort of way."
