The Taking it with us 2025 collection captures the warmth of late summer through vibrant floral monotypes, combining bold colour palettes with fresh organic shapes and dynamic compositions. Printed on premium Somerset Satin 410gsm paper, this one-of-a-kind piece is hand-painted directly onto the screen mesh, making the work a true original. Exclusively available at Print Club London.
A ghost print is the second pull from the same painted screen, after the primary impression has been taken. With less ink remaining, the ghost carries a lighter, more spectral quality — the image present as echo rather than statement, the colours muted and the marks degraded in ways that produce something distinct from the original.
Save My Breath (Ghost) — the ghost pull of the primary Save My Breath impression, carrying less ink and more history. The breath that was saved is here reduced further, the image a spent version of what preceded it: still vivid, still carrying the warmth of late summer, but at one remove. Valeska Hykel is a Bristol-based painter and printmaker, MA Multidisciplinary Printmaking (UWE 2022), Rebecca Smith Prize winner, and Print Club London’s 2023 artist in residence..
