Georgia Green (b. 1996) graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 2018. As a printmaker Georgia uses her art to unravel and dramatise everyday interiors from her life, questioning notions of intimacy, belonging and confinement through the glaze of domesticity and sentimentalism. Her painterly prints play with sunlight, lamplight and candlelight, endlessly drawn to the softness of illumination. Enclosed by these scenes Georgia is drawn into the warmth of her childhood; filling empty rooms with colourful figures and animals she collects from children’s books, novels, poetry, films and dreams. In these painterly reveries memories and imagination start to overlap playfully, illuminating the chimerical tangle of curiosity and longing that prompts each artwork.

Georgia specialises in planographic printmaking. Contemporary examples of this technique include silkscreen and risography. A more traditional example is stone lithography. Since 2023 lithography has been classified as a red list endangered heritage craft in the UK. Georgia has an AA2a artist residency placement at the University of Lancashire which retains the last academic stone lithography department in the North of England. Georgia’s practice weaves together her knowledge across all three planographic printmaking techniques, strengthening her capabilities in each medium. By highlighting the affinity they share, Georgia aims to bridge the divide between traditional and more accessible, contemporary printmaking techniques.

Georgia’s editions are award winning, receiving the Jackson’s Art Prize for Planographic Printmaking in 2024. Her prints have been selected for renowned exhibitions including the Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition, Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair and a selection of Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers events.
