Margaret Kilgallen

Margaret Kilgallen's aquatint and etching in colors presents her signature hand-drawn aesthetic, featuring bold figures and letterforms rendered with an intentional rawness that blurs the line between fine art and folk tradition. Printed on Chine collé laid onto Somerset paper, the delicate layering of papers adds subtle texture and warmth to the richly inked surface. The work reflects Kilgallen's deep reverence for handmade culture, street art, and vernacular imagery, capturing her distinctive style with intimacy and precision.
