Artwork Story
Groundwater, drypoint on handmade watermarked, pigmented, cotton rag paper with painted pulp inclusions.
Part of a series of works from an exhibition titled Earth in which Jobling reflects on the exploitation of Earth and questions the imbalance between human kind and the natural world. Jobling’s rich organic imagery portrays the nature of landscapes that have been disemboweled by human activity, leaving scars and exit wounds that may never be healed. The works consist of handmade paper made from plant materials with earth pigments.
