Helen Dixon (b. 1986) was born in London where she is now based. She received her BA (Hons) from Chelsea College of Arts, London following a Foundation from Camberwell College of Arts, London. She works by the principles ‘energy is neither created, nor is it destroyed’ and ‘the elements suffer continual rearrangement.’ Her focus is the cyanotype photographic process, which produces an exquisite Prussian blue image. She has been exhibited at Tate Modern and The Royal Academy of Arts amongst others. Recognition include the Aesthetics Art Prize (2019).

PRINT DETAILS
These works are made using the cyanotype photographic process, which uses simple chemistry, light and water to produce a Prussian blue image. Autographic line drawings take the place of a photographic negative to create the final image. Each cyanotype is created by hand individually and as a result there may be a slight difference between the screen version and the final print. Please note that the cyanotype is full bleed, there is no border on the paper and the edge of the paper is deckled i.e it will have a rough edge.
FRAMING DETAILS
The cyanotype will be floated within the frame on a white background (mount board). The print will be hinge mounted, a process which will allow the print to be safely removed from the frame should there ever be a need to do so. Please note that as this is hand framed, that there may be a slight wave in the print within the frame which is a common occurrence when framing original prints.
