Ley’s work is drawing-based. She uses time-honoured methods and materials with traditional intaglio printmaking techniques of soft ground, aquatint, sugar lift and spit bite within her etchings. Her work is closely observed, the intent being to capture the offbeat and inconspicuous. It’s mostly about light, and the way it can change the atmosphere, embrace and enhance a subject, or just fleetingly bestow a place, an object, or a person with an alluring nobility. Inspiring the viewer to examine the world more carefully and discover beauty in unusual places, particularly the everyday and commonplace, is her aim. In this recent group of human observations, the subjects inhabit their varied surroundings, absorbing the light and reflecting back a narrative where the observer can choose the outcome.
