Notes

Deborah Bell works intensely, submerging herself in the process of lithography as she engages with the alchemy of ink, paper, pencils charcoal and tusche. Out of the ink splashes on the floor and charcoal dust on her face and hands emerge images of sublime harmony and strength. Her female figures are the calm centre of a metaphysical chaos. From randomness, order takes shape, creating a sense of balance and harmony.
