SEISMIC AND MARS CANAL MONO PRINTS

With evidence this week that Iceland's most famous volcano Katla is experiencing frequent tremors, I thought it would be good time to post some of the mono printing I did last month based on seismic data.  Katla sits under the Mýrdalsjökull glacier and last erupted in 1918 and caused such a large volcanic ash cloud that crops failed and starvation occurred.  The eruption was recorded to have lasted a month and evidence suggests that it even caused gas poisoning in parts of the UK.


Preferring to work on a couple different series of work at a time, I also produced some mono prints relating to my Mars Canal ideas during the same studio visit.
