Crimson Streams, Crimson Torrents
Gemma Mackenzie
About the Piece
The print 'Crimson Streams, Crimson Torrents" explores the diverse experiences people have when they are on their periods. This reflects the array of colours and the variation of flows that periods can bring. The combination of water and red ink within the prints creates patterns which are, to some extent, out of my control, similar to how individuals menstrual cycles behave which are somewhat out our hands.
About Gemma Mackenzie
I am an artist who is inspired by events that occur in nature, including the human body. My work takes inspiration from methods of analysis and the visual outcomes created through testing, to create works that challenge our perception of materials and objects. I question this through the interaction between materials and the subsequent outcomes of when they are combined, using print, sculptural forms and installations, exploring disturbances within form, pattern and surface.
