Bernardine Rutter is a visual artist and works with traditional and digital Printmaking, Sculpture and Photography.

Originally from the West Midlands and from early childhood, fascinated by industrial process, by the alchemy of change, by pressure, by heat, by the intervention of human invention.

Her work plays with exaggerated perspective and textured overlays. Sometimes the accidental and sometimes highly staged. Enjoying the unexpected transformation a process brings, from the ancient to the digital, the veiled, the complex, not always knowing the outcome.

Bernie has been running workshops, teaching, lecturing and demonstrating since she left Nottingham Trent in the early 90’s. She works with a variety of different approaches, process and techniques. These include experimental mark making and drawing for mono print, collagraph, lino, dry point, letterpress, sublimation printing and cyanotype. She enjoys working with all age groups and all levels of previous experience.
