Wilhelmina Peace is a French-American visual artist and printmaker currently living and working in Belfast, Northern Ireland. She creates figurative pieces that explore the psychological underpinnings of myth, fairy tales and folklore. Her practise is chiefly interested in how these ancient tales embody processes of metamorphosis and self-knowing while conjuring rich imaginal worlds steeped in symbolism and metaphor. Her creative process involves investigating dreams as personal mythologies whereby she harvests symbols and moods that act as prime material for her work. She often depicts archetypal female figures that spring directly from her imagination. Her process of making revolves around drawing, collage and printmaking, particularly etching, lithography and bookmaking. These mediums present powerful potentialities to form narratives that straddle realms of enchantment and shadow. In printmaking, Wilhelmina feels a kindred connection between the alchemical nature of its technical processes and the initiatory narratives that animate her work.
