Minami Wrigley
Minami is drawn to lines in landscapes, this is present as a strong feature in her works. Lines are why she pursued intaglio printmaking and etching, where the images are created by drawing on a metal plate with a fine needle. Having grown up in multiple countries, the relationship of memory and intimate personal experience in shaping one's perspective has always interested her.
Minami loves maps and the notion of mapping often takes place in her works. She does this by annotating them with details such as coordinates, elevation, distance of the journey, etc.
