Bauhaus – Series

48

Artist’s Note: The mediums used in this series are pencil, ink and charcoal.
The technique of the first 12 is ink base, with some printed parts and then I added charcoal and pencil to finish, to add shades, textures, and lines.
The technique of the final 4 is pencil only.

Editor’s Note: The pieces in the original series were numbered sequentially by the artist, but she chose to omit #13 here. 

The Staatliches Bauhaus, commonly known as the Bauhaus, was a German art school operational from 1919 to 1933 that combined crafts and the fine arts. The school became famous for its approach to design, which attempted to unify individual artistic vision with the principles of mass production and emphasis on function.

Ms. Zed is an artist and writer who lives in Bath, England, with the ghost of her cat. She studied art, art history, and design at Bath and Cambridge universities.
