Jealous Print Studio established a Graduate Prize in 2009. A prize is awarded to one MA Fine Art graduate from each of the major London art colleges; the winning graduates are awarded an all-expenses-paid residency in their print studios. Guided by their studio team, each graduate creates a new limited edition print. The portfolio of each year’s graduate prints is then shown together in a group exhibition. Jealous have donated all the Graduate editions produced so far to the V&A print collection.
Maria A. Marquez is a graduate of Central St Martin’s. Her print reflects the playful and unsettling style and subject matter of her ink drawings and monochrome paintings, and is a reworking of a drawing made earlier in 2015.
