"Drawn to wind and weather, Geraldine van Heemstra connects to the changing landscape through walking and full immersion in the Scottish Hills and along the coastline. These monoprints were inspired by the rhythms of the waves relating to our inner landscapes and imagined destinations.

Geraldine graduated from City & Guilds of London Artschool in 2019 (MA) and was awarded the Norman Ackroyd prize for etching and won the Intaglio Printmakers Prize at the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair in 2021. She has exhibited widely since 2005 in solo and group exhibitions and this will be her sixth WCPF showing her work. She was shortlisted for the Clifford Chance Postgraduate Printmaking in London 2019 and nominated as a finalist for The Signature Art Prize 2020. Her work is held in many public and private collections in the UK and overseas."
