Nicholas Hill – Artist: Artist in Residence Presentation

Ohio artist Nicholas Hill brings the 19th century to his Glen Arbor Arts Center residency in September. Hill, a resident of Granville, Ohio, has developed a practice around the combining of intaglio printmaking and cyanotype photography, a plein air approach to cameraless photography. Hill will talk about the resulting collages he’ll make while in Northern Michigan at a presentation on September 18, 10 am. The program takes place at the GAAC, and is open to the public at no charge.

 “I use the concept of ‘plein air’ in a distinctive manner,” he said. “I work outside when creating plates and cyanotypes. I use the studio for the printing phase. I return to outside to create the finished collages. This use of direct observation is unique because I am creating the finished images as ‘printerly’ collages in nature.

The GAAC has been hosting visiting artmakers as part of its residency program since the 1990s.
