Hyams Beach Horizon 5/10 by Jennifer Baird

Artist Statement

‘This is the first exploration of Jervis Bay with screen print and ink. I love the white sand and have left the paper blank for the viewer to add the sand. I am very drawn to the simplicity of the geography of Hyams Beach. The horizon, the lighthouse, the white sand that squeaks between your toes.’
