HANNAH PARKER | Printed Cloth

24 March - 17 May 2025 

The making of Hannah Parker’s printed pieces were inspired by a video about a group of London women in 1950’s and 60’s. Described as housewives who spent time together carving linocuts of imagery about their everyday life, they then handprinted original dynamic designs onto fabrics that they sewed into clothes, curtains, placemats and tablecloths.  They were artists.   

Ideas for creating a fabric Shift and Robe – also displayed as part of Hannah’s exhibition – developed organically during the fabric printing process. 

Their format gave me a way to combine landscape with personal and traditional stories; a way to frame icons that resonate for me, that are and were part of my landscape during formative times; ways to play with design elements; and I enjoyed experimenting and layering colours.”

Of the North, For the North

We work to support artists achieve their aspirations. Artists set their prices and we add a standard service and marketing commission - this supports our not-for-profit programs and allows us to continually turn over the highest-quality artistic products.

Most artworks are one-offs and completely original in the iconic style of that artist; with the exception of intaglio and relief prints, which the organisation is renowned for. Check out our selection of limited-edition fine art printmaking.

Over 95% of the artists we support are from North Queensland. We work with both independent artists and those represented by commercial dealers and art centres.
