Talk and book launch by Professor Paul Coldwell, Chelsea College of Art and Design, to coincide with Nana Shiomi’s Exhibition, “Looking into the Mirror Pond”. Professor Coldwell and Nana will discuss contemporary printmaking.
Paul Coldwell is Professor of Printmaking at Camberwell College and project leader of The Integration of Computers within Fine Art Practice, a joint project between Camberwell and Chelsea College of Art and Design, University of the Arts London. He is a sculptor and printmaker, exhibiting widely with solo shows at The Eagle Gallery, Freud Museum, Arthouse Dublin, The London Print Studio and Queens Gallery, Delhi.
Nana Shiomi was born in Japan, and studied at the Tama Art University (BA, MA) and the Royal College of Art. She has been living and working in London since 1989. Shiomi makes contemporary woodcut prints, often using traditional Japanese icons. Her printing technique is based on the traditional Japanese way of printing, but with new materials and tools. Recently, her works have been well received at: the "-Matrix: An Unstable Reality-", the 28th Biennial of Graphic Arts Ljubljana, SLOVENIA; Northern Print Biennale, Newcastle; Summer Exhibition at the Royal Academy, London; and "Daughters of Sun Goddess -Japanese Femininity-" at the National Museum in Helsinki, FINLAND. Her "Basic Room - Zan Getsu -" was short listed for the "Insight - Image of the Year Award -" at the RA Summer Exhibition in 2006.
