Sandy Sykes composes visual tales of signs and symbols, which float up through time and engage the present in a dialogue of suggested possibilities. She recycles the stories of yesterday: adopting legends and relating them to our own world of sound bites.
The woodcuts are one off prints, hand burnished onto fragile handmade Indian papers.
