Jerwood Visual Arts

Gill Saunders and John Mackechnie curate an exhibition of ambitious and inspirational works which embrace innovations afforded by both digital technologies and traditional print media.

Surface Noise aims to confront and overturn the pejorative associations and preconceived ideas that often define print. At a time when printmaking is attracting considerable attention, the tenth in the Jerwood Encounters series offers a welcome platform to show new works which incorporate print in original and unconventional ways.

Gill Saunders is Senior Curator of Prints at the Victoria & Albert Museum. John Mackechnie is an artist and Director of the Glasgow Print Studio.
