Ann Aspinwall
Ray I-III Triptych, abstract minimalist linocut

2019

About the Item

Aspinwall adhered to a certain principle. She drew one freehand line as straight as possible. Under that line she drew another, following as closely as she could the one above it. Each successive line followed the line directly above, imitating all the curves and shakes. These imperfections, or deviations from the original line, became more and more prominent, each line being an interpretation of what came before it. While Aspinwall’s works have continued to stem from that practice, they have also evolved significant substantially: the scale has increased, the lines have loosened, and the colors have become much bolder. At a certain point Aspinwall recognized the potential in this method for evoking topographical features of an imagined terrain. She achieves optical effects of highlights, shadows, depth, and movement through variations of line density and her meticulous choice of colors.
