Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair

Rachel Gracey (b. 1968) is an Oxford based artist inspired by nature. A contemporary printmaker, this exhibition will show-case her latest series of lithographs of Port Meadow in Oxford. Gracey’s work is continually evolving from those inspired by Oxford’s University Parks (2016) to her most recent solo exhibition The Pacific Coast at Zuleika Gallery (2020). She continues to embrace negative space in her compositions and creates joyful, chic and beautiful works with a bold energetic painterly technique. Gracey studied fine art at Bristol and specialised in printmaking. She gained an MA in Printmaking at Wimbledon School of Art, where her lithographs were awarded the Michael Putnam Prize. Her work is in Collections at the British Museum, The Fitzwilliam Museum Cambridge, the Ashmolean Oxford, Guanlan Printmaking Museum and the Collection of Her Majesty the Queen. In March 2019 she was elected an RE by the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers.

Nicola Green is a critically acclaimed social historian and visual artist. Green has established an international reputation for her ambitious projects that can change perceptions about identity and power; exploring themes of race, spirituality, religion, gender, and leadership. Green has gained unprecedented access to iconic figures from the worlds of religion, politics, and culture, including collaborations with Pope Francis, President Obama, the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Dalai Lama. Driven by her belief in the power of the visual image to communicate important human stories, Green chooses to assume the role of ‘witness’ to momentous occasions taking place across the globe. Inspired by her own mixed-heritage children and multi-faith family, she creates and preserves religious, social, and cultural heritage for future generations. Recording these events as they happen, and investing many hours of academic and artistic research, Green builds and curates substantial archives.
