Irma Irsara’s gift for emotional expression through her artworks has long been reflected in all her artistic creations whether they be pulp paper artworks, artist books, print, video or installations.
The work on show represents a selection of paper pulp works from the last 15 years, as well as a small preview of her new series of photographic prints taken during the 2013 experimental ice and light installation in the ice wells of the London Canal Museum.
The achival digital prints with their natural textures, strong electric colours, organic shapes and powerful imagery sit well beside her pulp paper artworks and display a continuity of Irma’s creative interests albeit in a different medium. The ability to work across mediums when producing artworks while retaining a strong, identifiable visual signature is a hallmark of Irma’s creative output.
