Modern Relics is a solo exhibition by printmaker Matthew Lintott on tour this year.
The show explores how perceptions of deep time and space can affect our relationship with the land. Through woodcut relief printmaking, sculpture, and audio, Matthew draws on myths and geology to unearth the past, the wild, and the remote, taking us back to ancient landscape and materials.
Inspired by traditional Japanese woodblock techniques, Matthew prints predominantly by hand, without the use of a printing press. Working with geological material, including the fossilised remains of a 200 million year old squid, he produces his own printing ink, reanimating the ancient material into a new form.
