We collaborated with UCA\u00a0Rochester <\/a>on a project for 16 to 18-year-old art students. Huddie Hamper created a woodcut inspired by ‘Prince Bahman and the Dervish’ in Dalziel’s Arabian Nights’ Entertainments\u00a0<\/em>(i.e.\u00a0The Thousand and One Nights<\/em>), 1865.

This work was heavily influenced by the wood engravings\u00a0of the Dalziel Brothers. I was fascinated by their stylization in their prints and the level of detail shown. I wanted to represent this in my own work through through the medium of a woodcut.<\/em><\/p>\n

Unlike my usual more rough and choppy woodcuts in this project I wanted to add more detail to give a higher degree of likeness to the source material; but at the same time showing the other influences my ‘style’ (influence) contains, such as the woodcuts of figurative artist and painter Paul Gauguin.<\/em><\/p>\n

I had never seen the work of the Dalziel brothers before, but I found in a lot of it the figurative stylization I enjoy in painting, wood engravings\u00a0and illustrative work and was happy to translate this into my own work.<\/em><\/p>\n
