Jess Elliot – Exhibition of Cyanotypes

6 - 18 Feb 2026​

​

My artwork explores the themes of loss, the Earth, and disruption.As I capture and reflect upon what nature surrounds me in my day to day life, I see what man has created and in-turn also destroyed. The use of the colour and shades of blue - integral to my cyanotypes - evokes the feeling of sadness and loss. The stylistic erosion that is physically impressed in my cyanotypes mirrors the erosion of our natural environment by humankind.

​

The aim of my work is to conjure a narrative of what we as people take advantage of - be it man-made or created by nature. Over time my artwork will naturally fade, and in that same way so will what the images portray.
