LEE FULLARTON: MR CHIPPA THE WOODBLOCK CARVER OF BAGRU

Mr Chippa the Woodblock Carver of Bagru by Lee FullARTon is an exhibition presenting hand carved woodblocks and prints along with her puppets and journal paintings. FullARTon’s prints tell a cultural story about the Woodblock Carvers from Bagru, India. The story illustrates ‘Mr Chippa’ as he draws upon the imagery of his surrounding village to create an inspirational design. The reader is gently drawn into subtle cultural cues and nuances of Mr Chippa’s interactions and observations. The resulting print series forms a childrens book that guides the viewers to observe and be inspired to look and connect to their immediate surrounds in quiet contemplation.
