Peter Lynch
In the beginning the prints I first wanted to identify the unique, technical and conceptual position of printmaking, allowing the prints to exist in their own right (not illustrating my own painting practice).
Notions of flatness; the picture plane; the material of paper; gesture/finger mark being able to break the painted/printed surface and of reproduction all were considered in producing this series (suite) of prints.
With an assistant I was not restrained by technical practicalities. Therefore, more able to pursue the print in the spirit of playfulness, allowing experimentation to development and creating new corridors that ultimately affected the direction of the final result.
What I have created are prints that differentiate themselves from the paintings on canvas, developing their own unique position and ultimately pushing practice into richer territories.
