About
“I love the creativity of the cyanotype process. I like the mistakes, blur, brushstrokes, loss of definition and the translation and reduction of the photographic image.”
Rosalind Hobley is a London based artist working with early photographic and printmaking processes such as Cyanotype and Photogravure. Originally trained as a figurative sculptor, she now works with the figure and other natural forms. She often uses studio lighting to enhance the mass and three dimensionality of the subjects.
Rosalind gained a BA Hons in Fine Art Sculpture from Maidstone College of Art. She has been a recipient of the Create Church St Grant; LCN Scholarship; awarded first place in the Alternative Processes Series of the 16th Julia Margaret Cameron Award, and an Honourable Mention in the Portrait Series.
