Franklyn Dzingai

Franklyn Dzingai is a printmaker of uncommon commitment and technical distinction. His preferred technique is the reductive cardboard relief print, carving into cardboard and removing material progressively with each colour layer, so the image is built up through subtraction as much as addition, an irreversible process demanding precision and foresight.

His prints are vibrant and ornate, sourcing images from books, magazines, newspapers and family photographs to examine how individual memory contributes to collective identity.
