Attending Place (Diptych)

about

A unique state diptych from Georgina’s Attending Place series of lithographic works on paper in which motifs and imagery are repeated, reassembled and layered through the printmaking process, drawing on the ancient idea that ‘no one can ever step in the same river twice’. These prints draw inspiration from local walks in nature, along riversides and amongst intertwining paths, and the connection this restorative act builds within the self. The interwoven layers of each work connect present and future moments, invoking ideas of hope, opportunity and change in times of uncertainty. Framed in beautiful Meranti timber with acrylic and textured matboard, the diptych format serves to emphasise the concept of returning to place by means of the print matrix repetition and the idea that nothing stays the same.
