Meet the Artist: Jemma Gunning

Jemma Gunning is a printmaker based in Bristol and was commissioned by the JQTH project to create new work for The Fading City exhibition at The Hive. For her commission Jemma visited two derelict buildings, Alabaster & Wilson and Unity Works, to record their transient states and capturing our fading heritage. The use of intaglio and mono-printing processes resonate with the decaying structures she has recorded, preserving memories and documenting these extraordinary spaces.
