Selwyn’s major work consists of a muiltitude of layered prints which, using the mediums of woodcut and collograph and a palette which ranges from greys through  vibrant blues and reds evokes the many moods and patterns which are familiar and yet draw us into their continual shift and movement.

Light boxes and single prints

Other pieces used a more subtle palette and explored different patterns and mediums of presentation that ranged from light boxes to video projection. An exciting visual representation of what has obviously been an extraordinary journey for this printmaker.
Congratulation Selwyn and thanks for sharing this with us.
