Shanty, 2012

Often printed as unique colour variants, in homage to Munch, and in small editions, Hammick's compositions explore a divergent emotional resonance through colour. All are ethereal night scenes, dramatically lit by moonlight or firelight or by the pulsating colour that runs beneath their surfaces.
