Notes

Shown RCA Degree Show 1980; Gallery 52, 1981; 'OzPop' AGWA,1992. "This print is about the process of printmaking and trying to get away from the idea of the print with its precious, white edge. It's about the beautiful things of printmaking that are sometimes lost within the constraints of the print medium and image".
