Through drawing and printmaking Ian Chamberlain reinterprets man-made structures as monuments in the landscape. These structures are architectural metaphors of past and current technological achievements. He has had a long-standing fascination with technology and architectural forms especially the structures within industry, agriculture, science and the military. These have included Goonhilly Earth station, The Lovell Telescope Cheshire, The Atlantic wall WWII defences, Maunsell Sea Forts in the Thames estuary and the Acoustic Sound Mirrors on the South Kent Coast. Ian is interested in the use of a traditional Print process such as etching being used to record subject matter that is generally at the cutting edge of technology for its time. The etchings become an extension of his drawing allowing him to record the location through the interlinking processes of drawing and printmaking. His latest body of work focuses on humans kinds basic need for shelter. The work takes reference from a broad range of architectural forms, using the shelters as a metaphor to highlight notions around Isolation, boundaries and also the need to rebuild and start anew. The prints and drawings emphasise and capture layered architectural forms, showing them in a state of flux and transition. They are part of an emerging inter-disciplinary approach combining drawn photographic and hand printed methods. He exhibits widely both nationally and internationally, his drawings are held in the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London; Tate Modern, London; Bristol Museum; Royal West of England Academy, Bristol; Pallant House Gallery, Chichester; The University of Chichester collection; The Ashmolean, Oxford and Chippenham Museum.
