Hannah Rowan, Splitting, Calving, Melting, 2019
Risograph print on Olin natural white 170gsm paper, 42 x 29.7 cm (A3), Edition of 100 . Signed and numbered by the artist. Sold unframed
‘Splitting, Calving, Melting’ was created by placing ice directly onto the scanning bed of the risograph printer and making an image of its fluid transient state. The print relates to Rowan’s wider practice in which she creates interconnecting systems that speculate on the origins and many shifting states of water. The print instils some of the more ephemeral elements of her work into a tangible object and continues her exploration into the relationships between fluidity, ephemerality, geology and technology.

Hannah Rowan, Lithification, 2019
Risograph print on Olin natural white 170gsm paper, 42 x 29.7 cm (A3), Edition of 100. Signed and numbered by the artist. Sold unframed.
The term ‘Lithification’ refers to the process of the creation of limestone through the accumulation of ancient sea-creatures compressed into layers and eroded by water- an active cyclical water cycle involving both water and stone. The image itself is based on a three-dimensional scan of a limestone rock and serves as a record of the original data. The print continues Rowan’s exploration into the relationships between fluidity, ephemerality, geology and technology.
