Unique Work

Anna Sher’s work explores a sense of overwhelm and how it collides with the realm of beauty. Employing experimental printing processes, Anna turns her highly-detailed drawings into unique, monochromatic canvases with her patterns unfolding intuitively. Iteration is important in her practice as both tool and subject. Working across multiple mediums — from drawing to printmaking, she uses repetition as a way to investigate the visual transformations a single motif may undertake. Anna’s works sit within an abstract domain, yet their reflective nature alludes to objects found in the physical world, encouraging interpretation on both micro and macro levels. The Interval series operates as a perpetual reflection, with varying degrees of symmetry and order. As the layers build up, a sense of reverberating movement and energy emerges within the expanding pattern. Through this process there is an engagement with visual and tactile experience, of formal and material things, of surface and tone, thresholds and boundaries, resemblance and coincidence. Improvisation is at the centre of this work. It conveys the performative, almost ritualistic aspect of the making. Anna Sher holds a Master’s degree in Print from the Royal College of Art and an Undergraduate Diploma in Graphic Design from Central Saint Martins.
