Paula Bolton
Having graduated, as a mature student from Falmouth University with a First in Fine Art in June 2017 I have built up an independent coherent body of work as a freelance print-maker, in addition to the required portfolio for my degree. At University I spent nearly every day of my 3 years in the Print Studio where I learnt all aspects of printmaking including Intaglio, Lithography and Screen Printing; I found out then about the alchemy of this medium (or rather it found me) and I have never looked back! For the past 4 years I have been the Artist in Residence at Goonhilly Earth Station where my prints are on permanent display in the ‘Curved Corridor’ and Reception – I regularly curate and exchange these. This has given me the unique opportunity of unlimited access to the secure Site and a wealth of inspiration. Combining both the amazing landscape of Goonhilly Downs, a SSSI, and the iconic and historic dishes I have produced visual works incorporating industrial images entwined with organic elements. Having spent many hours wandering the Site I consider myself a landscape artist rather in the style of Richard Long where I ‘add to’ rather than ‘take from.’
