Photo Etching, edition of 20. (NB work sold unframed).
"This work arose out of a photo shoot with artist/model Wuon Gean Ho and photographer Paul Weaver. I asked Wuon Gean to sign 'Amazing Grace' which she did, and after a bit she decided to leap into the air at the same time. I decided she needed a sky to leap into which I added later. 'Maid of the Mist' is the name of the boat which takes visitors to Niagara falls, a border point between two countries, appropriate for this work from my Border Crossing series."

With an impressive resumé and critical acclaim, Margaret Ashman presents sophisticated photo etchings. Investigating the human figure and movement by using dancers as her subject she captures softness and energy in her photographs using a multi-layered approach and incorporating oriental imagery. Asian influences are evident in the simplicity and minimalism of these harmonious compositions. Soulful, sensitive and powerful work.
Margaret's work was selected for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2023.
