I make installations through diverse printmaking techniques and drawing.
I’m interested in how landscapes are changing and how these changes are small and invisible. Since 2014 I have lived in rural France and work with the landscapes around me – I am interested in using printmaking to make meticulous detailed installations that are both fragile and beautiful and touch on the small and invisible connections between things such as birdsong or insect noise.
I use traditional techniques and am interested in the use of time and my hands in the making of the work, that gives it a human connection and surface.
Victoria Arney regularly shows in Europe (France, Venice, Finland and Barcelona in 2015) and London with Bearspace Gallery, and has work in public and the private collections. She lives and works and runs printmaking courses in the Languedoc Roussillion area of France .
