Only When I Dream
Ignis and Ventus
In what signals something of a return to his printmaking roots with ‘Only When I Dream” Martin is exhibiting 'Ignis' and ‘Ventus', a series of works created by combining hundreds of botanical etchings, plant encyclopaedias and horticultural engravings in large scale analogue collages. The finished works conjure imagined worlds of strange conjunctions and psychedelic geographies populated with a vivid tropical flora in which a menagerie of strange and wonderful fauna coexists.
'Ignis' and ‘Ventus' is a signed and numbered limited edition of hand finished Giclee prints created from high resolution scans of original large scale analogue collages.
