Geraldine van Heemstra
£0.00
Drawn to working in strong wind and weather, Geraldine van Heemstra connects to the changing landscape through walking and full immersion in the Scottish Hills and along the coastline. The elements and landscape flow through her, onto paper and into her art, transforming the intangible into the tangible. Her marks are developed in collaboration with nature and expressed predominantly, but not exclusively, in painting and printmaking. Geraldine graduated from City & Guilds of London Art school in 2019 (MA) and was awarded the Norman Ackroyd prize for etching. She was shortlisted for the Clifford Chance Postgraduate Printmaking in London 2019, nominated as a finalist for The Signature Art Prize 2020 and winner of the Intaglio Printmakers Prize in 2021, and in March of this year she was given the Nancy Graham Memorial Book Award at the Royal Scottish Academy’s centenary exhibition of Visual Arts Scotland.
