Black Iris II
DESCRIPTION
Archival pigment print | 2019
Through this collection of digital prints, it should come as no surprise that Southgate-Smith has a background in sculpture and site-specific installation. Using those tools, combined with the advancements of technology, she’s created a series of strikingly monochromatic, two-dimensional works that break down elements of classical architecture into more modern compositions that highlight her love of the three-dimensional format with careful attention to her tactile textures.
