GENIUS Art Collaboration
Niki Hill and Geena Hill
Our artistic practice has evolved from our walks through the natural environment, gathering only fallen flora, rocks, and clay (also picking up rubbish) on our way.
Together we make mono-prints from the fallen flora, rocks are tumbled, clay, rock slurry, and pigment are mixed with acrylic binder or oil to make our paint. Taking inspiration from our mono-prints, we paint, stitch, and collage.
