To progress is to advance; to do more; to do better. Yet, progress is not something you complete, but something that should remain a constant.

Walking Driftward is a solo exhibition of monoprints and cut paper constructions made while Hannah Ireland was Artist in Residence at Spudnik Press Cooperative from September to November 2013. Ireland’s new work is based on exploring and creating around a hiking trip in Spain and Portugal in the summer of 2013.
