Paper size: A2
Edition of 34
Price: £100 unframed
Mandy Sutcliffe describes contemporary childhood, using a vintage storybook style. Sutcliffe strives to maintain the warm nostalgic feel, analogue drawing skill, and anatomical accuracy of traditional children's book illustrations. Sutcliffe's familiar style draws her audience in with universal themes of childhood innocence and wonder. Using contemporary references, Sutcliffe reflects the children of today, complete with wheelchairs, Nike swooshes, hijabs and Sea Salt sandals. You can often hear her talking to her subjects as she works from her studio in Bristol!
“Holding hands is such an ordinary thing that we see and do all the time but this tiny everyday behaviour triggers chemical reactions in our minds that makes us feel loved, happy, cared for and respected. This art work was inspired by my 'Paper Chain Project' drawn during lock down. I drew real children holding hands from all over the world & created a paper chain that stretches the length of a sports hall & features over 300 children.”
This artwork is also available to purchase via Own Art for £10 per month. To request an Own Art application or for more information about the Own Art process contact rebecca@woolwichprintfair.com
