Rachel Duckhouse is an artist working primarily in etching and pen and ink drawing. Her work is often made in response to artist residencies, where she explores new landscapes or environments, sometimes working with specialists such as architects or water engineers. In these new situations, she seeks out patterns and forms that can be explored and developed through conversation, walking, archive research and sketchbook drawing. Physically experiencing a landscape has become an important part of her drawing practice - a landscape might be the isolated moorlands and machair of the Outer Hebrides or the nano surface of an oyster shell. Supernatural Ballad was made after a residency in Anchor Studio in Newlyn, Cornwall, where she was based as she walked parts of the South West Coastal Path. This is a landscape she has returned to several times and continues to make work from. Through to the Citz (T) was created as part of a collaboration with PagePark architects, as they developed a new public walkway through previously blocked off railway arches in Glasgow. She’s undertaken artist residencies in The Outer Hebrides, Canada, Australia and Cornwall and has worked on public art commissions including the entrance gates of Edinburgh Printmakers. Her work has been acquired by The British Museum, Great Ormond Street Hospital in London and The Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York.
