Lucille Clerc is a French illustrator, based in London. She holds a Masters in Communication Design (Central Saint Martins). She works mainly for the press and publishing and regularly on a larger scale for the creation of textile patterns and murals. She specialises in making hand drawings, developed into screen printing in her personal work, to create large-scale compositions, architectural portraits of her favorite places and explore their past and present lives. Her favorite themes are the city and Nature and their sometimes symbiotic / sometimes antagonistic relationships. She develops these subjects in opulent narrative compositions filled with decorative and architectural details observed on site, with tones inspired by Nature and with a myriad of details that the viewer explores like a territory.
Her images require time and precision and require a certain state of abandonment and daydreaming to be appreciated in al their details. Everything is drawn by hand on a large scale, sometimes in one piece, sometimes in fragments that can be put together. The techniques used to print them allow a direct relationship with the medium (screen printing, engraving, cyanotype) which allows her to be autonomous in her productions and allows her a lot of experimentation and freedom.
The Dungeness Garden series, shown here for the first time is a set of 5 hand drawn illustrations, hand printed in screen print in CMYK process (4layers).
It is composed of a diptyque Day&Night in Prospect Cottage, a tribute to the wonderful garden created by Derek Jarman and his pioneer vision of modern landscaping design MY GARDEN’S BOUNDARIES ARE THE HORIZON, integrating the surrounding Nature as part of his creation. The 3 other prints depict the surroundings of Prospect Cottage and all prints share the same horizon line, so that the horizon continues from one print to the next and extends outside the boundaries of the frames.
