Background
Originally from Scotland, Kara Seaman graduated from the University of
East London in 2002 with a BA in Graphic Fine Art. Since moving to
Swansea she has participated in several community based arts projects
with an emphasis on photography and printmaking. Using the urban
environment as a focus for new work, observations and comparisons of
difference have been made between the layout and structure of the towns
and cities in South Wales and the lowlands of Scotland.
Artist's Statement
I find this contrast most interesting and have begun to
photographically document the houses and buildings that appeal to me
visually or culturally. I like to use texts and textiles in my work and
have found that by making cyanotype prints I can mix photography with
texts and textiles and the process enables me to print on to a variety
of media.
Over the last year I have also been experimenting with new drawing styles and silkscreen skills to produce prints relating to childhood and memory in a way I have never worked before. This has given me a fresh outlook on my work and will continue to experiment with silkscreen in the future
