Edition size: 1/7
Paper size: 55x38
Reduction linocut
2023
11 layer layer reduction linocut on Fabriano Artistico 100% cotton 300gsm paper.
Mariëtte’s recent series of reduction linocut prints, ‘Mad World’, is an accumulating body of work where she imagines the repercussions of the climate crisis and frames it with poignant and nostalgic lyrics from her youth. Eerily strange post-apocalyptic scenes filled with drama and unease are depicted and comment on humanity’s insufficient action. Her bold and graphic imagery attempt to grab the viewer’s attention and enlist their anxieties to emphasize the need of the hour if we are to avoid the reality of a dystopian world of our own making. Albeit forthright about the gravity of the situation, her work also speaks of the beauty and resilience of the planet.
