Detail
For the first time at The Biscuit Factory they bring together a solo show of ceramics, linocuts and paintings by artist Hilke MacIntrye. Born in Germany, Hilke studied architecture at the College for Art & Design in Kiel, working in different architectural practices until she moved to Scotland in 1995. Since then, Hilke has focused on printmaking, ceramics and painting. Her simplified figurative work, with bold shapes, strong colours and abstract pattern reflects varied influences including ‘primitive’ and folk art styles, early 20th Century European art and contemporary design. Whichever medium Hilke works in, she builds layers of color and pattern searching for unpredictable and unexpected combinations.
