Mandi Street is a landscape artist and printmaker working from her studio at home in Exeter. Her work most often represents local landscapes, capturing the energy of a place and time, producing work inspired by the spirit of places she has visited on her walks, with a focus on light, texture, and colour. Mandi trained as a painter and has a BA in Fine Art, she works in a range of 2D media, but for the last 6 years printmaking has been her preferred medium, specifically reduction lino printing where only one piece of lino is used. ‘For me, mark-making and texture in relief printing does the work of the paintbrush, giving work its own life, direction, and force. My approach to printmaking is quite loose and I enjoy going where the materials take me’.
