Zarina

Zarina was an Indian-born printmaker and papermaker focused on place, memory, and personal history who studied woodblock printing in Bangkok and Tokyo and intaglio at Atelier-17 in Paris. In 1991, she came to WSW to produce both Ten Woodcuts, a portfolio of woodcut prints, and The House With Four Walls, a portfolio of etchings. Zarina was a prominent figure in New York’s feminist circles in the 1970s. She has exhibited her work extensively and is collected internationally. Her first retrospective, Zarina: Paper Like Skin, was organized by the Hammer Museum in 2012 and traveled to the Guggenheim Museum and the Art Institute of Chicago. Zarina passed away in April 2020 in London.
