Artwork description:

UNFRAMED VERSION: How do we know what justice is? Is justice a measurable, objective state - or does it vary depending on ones point of view? Is the finger on the trigger that of a soldier - or a terrorist?

This original wood engraving is 7x10cm; it is hand-printed on a larger sheet of paper with generous margins to allow for mounting and framing. FRAMED prints from this edition are also available via Artfinder.

Wood engraving is a form of fine art printmaking. The artist uses specialised tools to create the image in relief (and reverse) on the end grain of a block of hardwood - usually boxwood - by removing the 'white' parts of the image. This technique is painstaking and highly technical, and allows for the creation of exquisitely detailed works. Rebecca's wood engravings have been exhibited in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, with the Society of Wood Engravers, and in galleries across the world from Japan to the USA.
