Rose Ferraby is an illustrator, archaeologist and cultural geologist, whose mixed-media work often explores our relationship with landscape.
Sea Change
These illustrations echo the rich layers of human voices and geological matter found in the poems of Katrina Porteous and Phoebe Power and in the landscape of the Durham Coast. The collages gather fragments of material, texture and form, using the colour palette of the coast.
The Tender Map
The illustrations for Melanie’s rich, visual poems sought to reflect the landscapes traversed; the ebb and flow of earth and water. I wanted to draw out the textures of place, creating marks and forms that echoed the character and voice.
Tenter
The monoprints created for Tenter echo textures drawn out of the poems: fragments of tapestries, threads of narrative, the warp and weave of ink.
