Lotus



Pictured above L-R: Lotus, 2023, Linocut with Chine collé, 20 x 15 cm, Edition 1/40 (cropped), paired with its doppelgänger, the block from which it was printed.

My protagonist’s tattoos are based on elements of Lotus, circa 1895, an embroidered panel or curtain, one of a pair attributed to British Arts and Crafts doyenne, May Morris. (Collection: V&A).
