Brutalist Playground
22.5 x 15 cm
Wood engraving
The playground at Balfron Tower in Poplar, London is an iconic example of Brutalist architecture. The structure of this playground is fully formed from concrete, including the slide. Working as a gallery technician, I installed the foam replica of Brutalist playgrounds made by artist collective Assemble and Simon Terrill. I had to go and visit the orginal sites to see them for myself.
These prints are original wood engravings. I engrave on boxwood or lemon wood blocks using traditional hand tools. Then I ink up the block and print the edition one at a time. Each print is an original artist print.
No. of prints in edition: 30
This print is made using Lawrence Original Linseed Oil Relief Ink. The formulas used to create these inks have been in use for hundreds of years and are “free from animal-based or derived ingredients, made with linseed oil, not honey or gelatine”. The paper is archival and acid free.
Each print is signed, dated and editioned in pencil below the image.
