RYO YAMAUCHI

Ryo Yamauchi is a photographer and printmaker. She works with photogravure, a technique that combines photography and etching. Her practice evolves through the gesture of collecting and pressing - a primitive act of contemplating time, experience and knowledge... Always returning to her original passion in semiotics and love for the natural world, she explores communication using images as a language to examine alternative perspectives, achieve further understanding of the whole and restore intuition through connecting with nature... We run life drawing sessions at Marcus' Flat (Ryo Yamauchi's printmaking studio) in Montsalvat Arts Centre on Thursdays 1-3pm.
