Notes


Sumi Perera is an interdisciplinary artist whose work draws on her background as a doctor and scientist. She generates multiple series from a given set of plates by combining hybrid printmaking techniques (etching, aquatint, drypoint, monoprint, chine collé, collagraphs, mezzotint, lithography, kiln-fired screenprint decals etc.) with stitch and Computer Numerical Controlled methods (laser-cutting/engraving, sandblasting etc.). Her work is often interactive and collaborative and open to transformation. Perera received an MA Book Arts from Camberwell College (2004). She taught at CAFA (Central Academy of Fine Arts), Beijing and has curated several exhibitions.
