Description
About the artist:
Cleo Wilkinson is an Australian artist passionate about the mezzotint technique. This print technique gives Cleo the perfect opportunity to explore light and the absence of it. In her works, the light emerging from darkness captures strong feelings of loneliness, emptiness and silence. Highlighting the singularity of the moment, almost like a crystalized emotion, renders the image with a memory like quality, in which the surroundings details fade into the shadows. Wilkinson’s mezzotints depict intimate close-ups of figures revealing strong personal expressions of loneliness, emptiness and silence, enhanced by the beautiful array of dark and light tones.
