The Hens of Stamford Hill and other Hackney curiosities is our latest exhibition at Beaucatcher, showcasing handmade framed prints by local artist Sara McLaughlin. The exhibition runs from 5 October until December 2015.
About Sara:
I am a local artist based in Stoke Newington, working mainly in oils, pencil, charcoal and printmaking. I am an associate of the National Society of Artists, Sculptors and Printmakers and also a member of the Islington Arts Society. This year I have exhibited at the Menier Gallery, Southwark, Lauderdale House and Springfield Park Café, among other venues. The hens really do live in Stamford Hill…
About the printmaking techniques:
These original handmade prints use a variety of printing techniques. No two prints will ever be the same, as the way in which the ink is applied creates a unique effect. The techniques I have used for this show are lino cut; monoprint with mixed media; photo etching from original drawings; collograph; drypoint
Prices for this show range between £60 and £70.
