These prints by writer and printmaker Nancy Campbell have been coloured by hand using stencils, a technique known as pochoir. They depict silhouettes of Arctic icebergs, a landscape that is melting. Campbell parallels them with phrases from the West Greenlandic language of Kalaallisut which is on UNESCO's Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger.(05/11/2019 - 04/04/2021) |
