Hester Cox

Hester has been exhibiting her prints and teaching workshops for twenty years. She lives in the Yorkshire Dales and her work is informed by the natural landscape. As a fellrunner, her excursions take her to remote locations in all weathers. The physicality of running creates an enduring connection with the landscape that she draws upon when back in her studio.

By using multiple plates, painted textures and intricate cutting in her collagraph printmaking she aims to accentuate the patterns and celebrate the colours found in nature, drawing attention to the everyday occurrences that often go unnoticed or are soon forgotten.
