Artist Bio
Sri Thumati is a visual artist, print-maker and photographer; her primary focus is Cyanotype experimentation. As she explores the relationship between light and pattern, Sri uses botanicals, printed fabric, and monotypes to create a juxtaposition of colors and layers to create compelling images. Brush strokes, leaf formations, texture, paper type, exposure times and dried paint- all of these are used to enhance the visual effects of a piece to make it engaging. Sri’s work has elements of emotion, whimsy, and magic, as she leaves room for her material to guide her experiments. Her fabric work is often used to make tapestries and functional art.
Materials and Techniques: Cotton fabric and cold pressed paper are the materials used for Cyanotypes. Print paper is used for monotypes and hand pulled prints. Sri uses photo chemistry and acrylics to make her work.
