Bas-relief Hieroglyphics

$250.00
This edition is a return to a classic. Bas-relief is an ancient art making method where works are produced by adding to, or subtracting from, a surface. The oldest known bas-relief artworks date back 30,000 years across Egypt, Assyria and Persia. 


Here, I used plaster to raise the imagery off the surface to create the hieroglyphics. Raising the glyphs gives a slight height to the images which delivers a sense of depth and shadowing in the artwork, depending on the lighting and how it’s hung. As such, this artwork can be both subtle or bold. 


The glyphs are a collection of some of my more known & requested motifs. The works are individually handmade, created with plaster applied through a stencil mould.
