by pavel slutskiy Dr.

Cream Fabriano paper, ink

h: 25 w: 35 d: 1 (cms).

In this drypoint series, I explore the golf courses, where land, water, sand and sky converge in interesting compositions. Focusing on the sculptural dunes, horizons, and the geometry of fairways carved into wild terrain, the works seek to convey the profound atmospheric and emotional resonance of these landscapes. While traditional golf imagery has often favoured decorative and sentimental approaches, my intention is to present a more contemporary and contemplative interpretation. By employing the direct, tactile qualities of drypoint—characterised by rich velvety blacks, expressive burr lines, and nuanced tonal variations—the prints attempt to achieve a modern sensibility that emphasises mood, texture, and light rather than mere illustration. This technique allows for a balance between precise linear detail and atmospheric depth, transforming familiar golfing terrains into cinematic, almost abstract compositions that transcend conventional sporting art.

£150 (As exhibited.)
£150 (Unframed print.)
