About this artwork
‘Rockfall’ is an etching inspired by the chalk cliffs along the South Coast of the UK. It is the first of a developing series of etchings looking at the changing geography of the South Coast cliffs. Changes in climate and weather over the centuries have constantly influenced the form and shape of the cliffs.
Over the past winters many 'cliff falls' have occurred at the south coast line. This erosion process is ongoing. Winter storms and high tides… both weaken the calk cliff structure.With my etching I hope to capture the beauty and drama of this process.
This image is printed from 3 etching plates, each print is an original, printed by me on acid free fine art printing paper in my studio in Brighton/ UK. The image size is 50cm x 50cm with a paper margin of 8cm all around Paper edge ( 66cm 66cm).

« With my work I wish to take the viewer's mind on an imaginative journey to find their own narrative in my etchings. Imagination is what else there might be. »
Heike Roesel is fascinated by the changing British south coast and the drama of the erosion of the cliffs. The painter and printmaker, who is based in the United Kingdom, finds the point where land and sea meet to be an endless source of inspiration. It is important for Roesel to develop images through the printmaking process, allowing the piece to leave room for an individual and imaginative interpretation.
