Eimearjean McCormack

Based in Ireland, new People of Print Member Eimearjean McCormack has specialised in print for over 18 years. Having graduated with an MA in Printmaking from the University of the Arts London in 2007, she completed a second Masters in Graphic Design in 2016 specialising in publication design projects primarily informed by artists’ books and zine culture.

Her practice incorporates a range of processes such as silkscreen, etching, cyanotype, risograph, photogravure, large format printing, hand binding and illustration. Informed by appropriated imagery that is re-contextualised through the print process, Eimearjean’s work explores how visual experimentation of existing material can affect how we regard printed matter.

“Combining traditional and digital processes is central to my practice because it allows me to work intuitively overprinting images and text. This mainly involves cutting and pasting by hand before scanning and manipulating the image to generate positives for printing.” – Eimearjean McCormack

McCormack’s most recent work is centred around creating one off publications. She states: “I am particularly interested in how this medium has positioned itself at the intersection of literature, visual art, photography and graphic design, permitting artists like myself to easily extend beyond the studio or gallery.”
