Tamsin Relly, Notes for I Am Nature, 2021 (framed)
Monotype, 15 x 10cm
South Africa-born artist Tamsin Relly moved to London in 2009 and received her MA in Fine Art at City & Guilds of London Art School in 2011. Her multi-disciplinary practice, which includes painting, printmaking and photography, reflects on our shifting global climate, and considers the erasure and construction of wilderness.
The imagery in this framed, unique print suggests a living underwater world. Evoking luminosity and a certain ambiguity; the artist’s fluid, organic forms flow into areas of abstraction. In Tamsin’s words; ‘I’m interested in the unpredictability of watercolour printmaking and the ways in which it shifts the images I’m working with. So, from what you think you’ve put down in front of you, compared to what comes out from the press – there’s an element of surprise, right up until the end.’
Tamsin’s work has been exhibited and collected widely in the United Kingdom and internationally, appearing in group exhibitions at The Royal Academy of Arts, The National Maritime Museum and Sid Motion Gallery, all in London. Her work has also been included in group exhibitions in Paris and Cape Town. Her work is held in collections such as Spier and Ellerman House in South Africa, and Hogan Lovells, Dentons and the National Maritime Museum in London. She has had solo exhibitions hosted by The House of St Barnabas, The Place Downstairs, and Brocket Gallery all in London. Oliver Projects has presented Tamsin’s work in several group exhibitions including ‘Drawing Closer’ in 2020, ‘Into the Light of the Present Day’ in 2021, and the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair in 202 and 2022. Tamsin is based in south east London.
