SUMMARY:Editions Ltd: Editions Ltd: On the Wing - Ruth Thomas
DESCRIPTION:On the Wing - \nRuth Thomas\n\nPrivate view -Thursday 4th April
  4.00-7.00pm\n- until 11th May\n\nThis exhibition is Ruth's fifth at Editi
 ons but it's been a long six years since we last showed her work and we ar
 e excited to see this new body of pieces with its winged theme. Ruth Thoma
 s makes hand-made original prints\, incorporating direct impressions from 
 natural objects.\n\n“I have been using natural materials such as feather
 s\, grass and seeds in my prints for many years. Taking impressions from t
 hem is one way of engaging with the natural world and the landscape around
  me.\n\nI live and work in the Vale of Clwyd in North Wales. My studio loo
 ks out over an open landscape of fields\, woods and the Clwydian hills. A 
 large flock of rooks is present year round and in winter these are joined 
 by migrant gulls\; in summer\, swallows fly over the field outside the win
 dow.\n\nMy latest work is inspired by these birds and the feathers I find 
 while out walking. I start by cutting a stencil of the birds\, then combin
 e the stencil with individually inked feathers and print onto Maruishi\, w
 hich is a fine translucent Japanese paper.\n\nEach piece is made up of fiv
 e or six layers so the resulting prints need to be carefully registered in
  order to make the final image.\n\nI enjoy the interplay between the drawn
  image of the birds and the direct impression of the feathers. Both bird a
 nd feather convey a sense of weightlessness and freedom.”\n\nIn other pi
 eces in the exhibition Ruth explores the abstract qualities of handwriting
  and the different forms a message can take.\n\nRuth is a member of the Ro
 yal Cambrian Academy
