Georgie Fay is an artist based in Scotland with dreams of setting up an inclusive community printmaking studio. Participation, sharing and socially engaged practice is at the heart of her work. Her practice is primarily print based and often inspired by her noteworthy career as an art educator. At the core of her artistic vision is a search for place and connections, in landscape and history. She explores critical themes like the mounting tensions between humankind and nature, mapping our world and the importance of memory, place and our loss of imagination. These themes are derived from her own engagement with the world around us; from the city pavement to the flight pattern of migrating birds; from everyday journeys we take for granted, to global travelling and experiencing unfamiliar landscapes. Fay uses traditional intaglio methods as a means of translating participatory projects into something more representative and less ephemeral. She works with photography, digital imagery and found materials as inspiration which is then translated through printmaking to produce etchings and monoprints. She layers imagery with drawing and mark making to create imagined landscapes, in which the viewer can find their own personal connections. Her most recent body of work looks at how humankind has interacted with and changed the landscape. She specifically explores human use of the elements and industry throughout time, from Neolithic farming to power stations that dot our horizons today.
