Monotype
Edition of
Dimensions (WxH): 56 x 77cm
Sandra Daniel creates powerful monotype prints that look past literal representation to question the nature of good, evil, and modern corruption.
Her bold, determined series, Garden of Gethsemane, is about a biblical landscape of betrayal, agony, and impending suffering. Influenced by literary scholars, the work centres on a quote from The Master & Margarita, where the devil asks: What would your good do if evil didn’t exist, & what would the earth look like if shadows disappeared? Intersecting strong contrasts of light and dark, Daniel works into an inked matrix surface. Using a rag to manipulate tone, shadows, and light, she creates an interesting edge as opposed to a line. Featuring a universal, stylised flower form, the strong compositions shift between flat and three-dimensional spaces to critique modern horror and systemic greed.
Daniel has exhibited widely, including with Loop Artists printmakers and the Printmakers Council at the Bankside Gallery, as well as at Gucci Circolo, the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair, and the Royal Academy Summer Exhibitions. Daniel is a member of the Printmakers Council and her work is held in the V&A and Scarborough Museum Archives.
