VOLUME 34, AUTUMN 2025 ISSUE 135

Welcome

Editor

There’s a bonanza of artist profiles in the autumn issue: the cover image is a screenprint by Katya Timoshenko ARE, who is profiled alongside fellow Ukrainian artist, Mykhailo Drimaylo ARE. UK-based Timoshenko makes deeply personal work, drawing upon Ukrainian folklore and her Slavic roots. Drimaylo’s intricate etchings bear witness to the tension between his love of nature and the devastating impact of war on Ukraine.  Swoon’s latest relief print installation speaks to victims of drug addiction and their families, to help them gain agency over their trauma. We peek behind the curtain of Michael Taylor’s studio to glimpse work in development for his upcoming solo and we see how Katherine Jones,fluidly moving between print and painting, makes traditionally feminine subjects universal. Similarly working between the two disciplines, Dr Bren Unwin PPRE assembles elements from nature, time and the landscape to create a multi-faceted equivalence of place.I hope these profiles inspire you. I am looking forward to catching these artists’ exhibitions (and the many others mentioned in this issue), there’s an autumn abundance of print shows!
