Summer Swim (Ghost) is an original ghost monoprint created by Margaux at Print Club during the spring-summer of 2025. Part of the exclusive Print Club London series of original monoprints exploring the body's energy, movement and sensation during the heat of that summer.
A ghost print is the delicate second impression pulled from the original plate after the primary Summer Swim print has been made — carrying less ink, the image appears lighter and more ethereal, as if seen through water or from a distance. The swimming figure in its ghost version has a particular appropriateness: the swimmer already in motion through a medium that dissolves definition.
