Have you ever wondered how a 1950’s metal type fleuron can explain cutting edge Parkinson’s research? Who the naked reverse wifi guy is and what he’s got to do with enzymes? Or how flight and neurons can be connected? Glint lover Elizabeth Fraser has. In this lecture, she will explain her love of pattern, science and her journey bringing letterpress and the laboratory together.

Elizabeth Fraser a.k.a Frauhaus is an artist printmaker working mostly with letterpress and linoprint. As well as puzzling over make-ready and inspiration in her garden studio Elizabeth teaches as an Associate Lecturer at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge. Her prints and artist books have been loaned, donated & acquired by Kent University special collections archive, Oxford University Bodleain Library, RIT Cary Graphic Arts Collection and The British Library. Most recently an essay about her sci-art work has been included in the book Ways of Thinking published by Ruskin Arts.

I was delighted to be invited to talk at St Brides about my science related printmaking. COVID-19 has moved us to virtual St Brides, the atmosphere may be slightly different but travelling to the venue couldn't be easier!

Tickets are £3 - £5 and are available through the St Bride’s website (Zoom link will be emailed out on the day of the event)
