- Description
-
Rhythmic and exuberant linocut by Eileen Cooper RA, whose work encompasses sexuality, motherhood, life and death. This is one of a celebratory series depicting female figures on and by sea. Cooper is sometimes described as a magic realist. While often strongly autobiographical, her work is always more allegorical than anecdotal. Rich in narrative, Cooper’s imagery celebrates strong, female characters who may take centre-stage alone, or share the intimate worlds that she creates with other family members or animals to create nature-filled, dream-like environments. Her work is shown throughout the UK and internationally, and held in significant public and private collections.
