Elizabeth describes her current personal practice as “neo-Pictorialist”. Her cyanotype and other alternative printing techniques emphasise  the aesthetic and embrace the other-worldly

 

 

Elizabeth describes some recent work:

 

“In 2019 as an Artist-in-Residence at Parham House in West Sussex, I returned to my photographic roots. I spent a year photographing the Jacobean Manor House and Walled Gardens with an 8×10” view camera. I produced  salted paper and cyanotype prints for the exhibition.

 

“In 2022 I shot a project at the Booth Museum of Natural History in Hove on 8×10, creating a series of salt points that became Endangered Species. This was exhibited in London. Last year it was part of my Victorian Modern Exhibition in Arundel with the Zimmer Stewart Gallery.”
