Rebecca Morrow

Morrow’s printmaking practice takes form through mark making, comprised from hand tools concerning the subjects of aging and fragility in relation to her Grandfather.

With an emphasis on creating heavily etched embossings of the tools' marks, and the relationship and movement of the tool with the crafter. Morrow includes hand drawn, autobiographical mark-making from her Grandfather within the compositions to create thought provoking and emotive works. She makes this kind of work to bring a personal form to her practice.

Presenting the viewer with the tool as an object used within the printmaking process but also an emotional connection to her Grandfather and the artist. Contrasting the tools as mere objects in process with a storytelling and personal narrative.
