Jacky was a finalist in the International Print Biennale 2014 Print Awards with Gum Bichromate prints of bricks from the North East coastline.
These had been discarded into rivers, dumps or directly into the sea, many still bearing the original maker’s mark and identity. Following much of her other work these images reflected on the wider social, economic and industrial transitions that have impacted on our region.
