Left - Hard ground etching with watercolour 37 x 28cm

2015 - 2016

“Burrill’s etchings of discarded domestic objects – chairs, washing machines, ironing boards – turn to a traditional print-making technique that requires great skill, precision and patience – factors that by her own admission make the production process as frustrating as it is satisfying – Burrill elevates the status of the items she depicts. No longer are they simply abandoned orphans left on the street to rot, they are entities worthy of memorialization through art. After the plates are printed, she again turns to collage, and embellishes the ‘portraits’, adding colour and gloss to the monochrome etchings to ‘give them what they need, to bring them back to life’. This series became particularly poignant to Burrill following the unexpected death of her mother, as she experienced and explored feelings of abandonment, loss and grief. She came to reconsider the importance of belongings, recognizing the need to cherish and rekindle them, as surrogates for those that are gone.” Rebecca Morrill
