Henny Tate is a British artist based in the Wiltshire countryside, whose work explores the quiet complexity of plants and their place within the wider natural world.
Ink Paintings
The paintings in this series are in ink made from charcoal and ground lac insect on handmade Bhutanese paper crafted from the sustainably harvested lohkta tree. The surface, texture and process mirror the organic structures she depicts, creating pieces that feel both ancient and immediate.
Giclee Prints
These prints are sent direct to you from a wonderful print maker in Somerset whose attention to detail is second to none. The prints are made on Hahnemuhle William Turner 310gsm so are thick and textured and produce a very convincing copy of the handmade paper I use for the originals. There is a white border around the edge of the print so that you can buy an 'off the shelf’ frame in a standard size and the print will look float framed once fitted. They are available in A1 - which is closest to the original ink painting size - A2 and A3.
