Glassy

1996
Clough, Prunella
Clough held an interest in still life since Art College and explored the possibilities of printmaking throughout her career; these two practices greatly influenced her later works. Her etchings concentrated on colour, texture, shapes and visual memory, meticulously transforming everyday objects and using the title as a reference point. 'Glassy', produced three years before Clough's death, is an example of this practice, and of her personal abstract language, scrutinizing the surfaces and textures of the modern environment.
