Georgia Merton is a multi-disciplinary British artist and photographer, living in Hackney, London with her two children. Drawing inspiration from natural phenomena, the human body and architectural structures, Georgia re-imagines forms through her lens to reveal new perspectives.
In recent years, her practice has centred on cyanotype, exploring the expressive possibilities of its distinctive blue and white palette. As a printmaker Georgia's graphic work is largely an interpretation of her photographs. Georgia transforms these source images into cyanotype editions through layers of light, chemistry and intuition.
Printed on beautifully textured paper, the works are incredibly atmospheric and emotive, often evoking a sense of nostalgia with memories of childhood holidays, the feeling of the hot summer sun, windswept beaches and the cool air of the mountains.
