Offered here is a linocut print of an original artwork by Marcelle Hanselaar.

The image measures 40 x 30 centimeters on 56 x 36 centimeter paper.

Completed in 2020, each print is an edition of 20.

In the artist’s words: One of the things I really miss during lockdown is a good conversation, a dialogue with others.

The claustrophobic feeling of being limited to your own thoughts your own mind feels very restrictive and I notice we often end up talking to strangers.

Born in Rotterdam, Holland, Marcelle Hanselaar is one of the most accomplished printmakers working in Britain today. Etching is the art form in which Hanselaar has demonstrated an uncommon facility, she brilliantly exploits the contrast of light and shade that the etching technique makes possible, in order to explore the bleaker, more unsettling facets of the human psyche.
