Cyril Power and Claude Flight – Interwar Linocuts


The Linocut prints of Cyril Power, Claude Flight and Sybil Andrews have been some of my favorite art since I discovered their style in my teens. My architectural photography is especially influenced by expression of space, form and movement.

The use of multiple “plates” of lino to produce in a final image has strongly influenced my understanding of colour and how to use it. Similar in concept to a CYMK print process, a lot of consideration has to be given in the composition of the picture to maximise the opportunities provided by the medium.
