Experimental House for Marimekko

Irish artist Blaise Drummond explores the tenuous relationship between nature and culture. In this image, which depicts an experimental house in Finland built with prefab components, he combined woodcut and stone lithography to juxtapose the clean, sharp lines of the minimalist architecture with the delicate landscape around it. The image looks deceptively simple. Developed after several sessions devoted to discussing ideas and proposing and reworking image ideas, it combines many different types of marks; the light-blue windows, for example, were created with printmaking, but made to look like translucent graph paper.
