Collection: Pamela Dodds
Pamela Dodds is a multidisciplinary printmaker whose practice spans a range of genres.
She creates richly layered prints from natural woodgrain patterns, using blues, greens, and golds to evoke sea and sky, celebrating the radiance and mutability of colour. Her series of black-and-white relief prints explore interpersonal relationships and shared experiences, often depicting paired figures in dream-like, emotionally resonant environments.
She also periodically produces small portraits of trees, drawn from memory and direct observation.
In work made primarily for exhibition, Dodds engages with contemporary political issues. Her ongoing project, Documenting Border Barriers—first exhibited at Open Studio in 2022—has since been shown in Quebec, Mexico, Belgium, Poland, and the USA.
