Graham Dean Hand Numbered Limited Edition Print on Paper :"Boat"

Graham Dean has exhibited internationally for over 40 years and his work is in many private and public collections throughout the World. The artist used the human body as a `holding pen for emotions` and so his figures represent vessels that contain both ideas and emotions. Following Reich`s research into armouring, Dean envisages the body as a memory bank; a thinking body. As the World gets more congested, so will people`s bodies. His work always continues with the exploration of the human condition and our relationship with our own environment. Using a technique he calls `reverse archaeology`. Graham Dean invents the traditional uses of watercolour resulting in a unique technique. Contrasting layers of paint are applied separately on thick, hand-made paper, usually sourced from Southern India.
