Rachel Wingate
£0.00
Rachel Wingate is interested in unknown stories and imagined narratives explored through a mix of mark making techniques combining line and texture.
Heavily influenced by European dance theatre, she combines an exploration of texture with delicate line drawing to create tragicomic tactile figures. Limbs project into space, escaping from organic masses created by manipulating traditional printmaking techniques. Processes are layered and the plates are pushed to create deep bites and a richness of black in the print, that lends to the ambiguous narrative of the characters depicted.
Wingate’s recent prints showcase new techniques in the range and type of marks create and materials used. Through experimentation and a bold approach to plate treatment, looser and more playful images have emerged that still feature Wingate’s classic distortion and disappearance of the human figure.
Wingate graduated from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in 2009 with a first class honours degree in Theatre Design. She has completed a variety of short courses in print making alongside her work in theatre.
Since starting printmaking in 2017, she has exhibited work in various exhibitions including three previous editions of Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair. Wingate has been lucky enough to win prizes for her prints, most recently the Artichoke Print Award at the 2022 WCPF.
