Typewriter Art

Keira Rathbone creates amazing pictures. Each one is a 90 hour work in average. Keira uses her old orange manual typewriter to create pictures. She uses the numbers, letters and symbols to build up tone and shape as she moves the paper.

"I have a long-standing interest in images that are made up of many smaller constituent parts, for example newsprint images made from dots, and digital images that are made from pixels. I like to make artwork that encourages the viewer to look at the image from different distances. It could be considered a reference to taking perspective on issues in life"



She enjoys the challenge of different subjects; developing her styles; experimenting with the mediums onto which she types; and the potential application of her work into different disciplines.
