Jessica Sherriff

"My work incorporates countryside, woodland and sky scapes to evoke ideas of escapism and beauty within these natural surroundings. I employ my own photographic material and display my images in an original way through a technique of printing onto acrylic. Effects of distortion are created through varying the thickness of the acrylic, allowing my images to be distorted and reflected within the shape itself. The combination of matt and shiny surfaces adds to this effect whilst experimenting with colour has allowed me to create both subtle and more vivid pieces within my collection."
