RUNE by Liz Taunt

Liz Taunt (RUNE) is our cover artist. She uses many different printmaking techniques including drypoint, lino, collagraph and monoprint, and she has recently been making collages from discarded prints. She is not interested in narrative or realism in her art, instead she is trying to bring something new into the world that combines the chaotic, the arbitrary and the awkward: things that surprise her and prompt the question ‘where did that come from?’ She gets lost (in a nice way) in a parallel world, and tries to invent ciphers and shorthand to describe her particular reality.

Liz's work appears in Issue 9 of Hinterland. Click here to buy a copy.
