Georgia Green

PRINTMAKER PROFILE

ARTIST STATEMENT

Since graduating with a BA in Fine Art: Painting and Printmaking from Glasgow School of Art in 2018 Georgia has championed sustainable printmaking processes such as risography, a mechanised form of stencil printing with a more climate conscious appeal than its traditional or digital counterparts.
Georgia’s editions have been selected for renowned exhibitions including the Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition, the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers IOPE and Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair. Highlights from her practice over the past twelve months include a month-long residency at Aga Lab in Amsterdam researching non-toxic stone lithography, and winning the East London Printmakers’ 2022-23 Studio Bursary Award for talented emerging artists.

As a printmaker Georgia uses her art to unravel the interiors she moves through and lives within. She dissolves and dramatises everyday rooms and corridors, questioning notions of intimacy, belonging and confinement through the glaze of domesticity. Enclosed by these scenes Georgia is drawn into the warmth of her childhood; filling empty rooms with colourful figures and animals she collects from children’s books, novels, poetry, films and dreams. In these painterly reveries memories and imagination start to overlap playfully, illuminating the chimerical tangle of curiosity and longing that prompts each artwork.
