Time For Home

Description

Jonathan Ashworth creates a sense of stillness and nostalgia in this small-scale wood engraving.

“It is a daydream world of Jonathan Ashworth’s, a gentle world of reverie, lost in a moment of thought or action. Small gestures, small details framed with a writer’s eye. His [images] have a stillness; poised, nostalgic like a flash bulb photograph. Their contemporary edge comes from the background textures, the electrostatic of a modern existentialism, the fuzzy thought patterns, emanating an internal aura of Morse code, or Braille, lost in their lines of thought.

“The weight of a wood engraving is often in the time, concentration and care that such detail demands and so it is little surprise that ‘time’ is everything in these prints. We see time poised in Ashworth’s imagery, time swallowed in the motion of action." (Nick Hayes – April 2016)
