"I draw, I practice lithography, I make artist books, all tactile processes and exploration of surface. I seek the simplicity and directness of an aesthetic and poetic experience."
Véronique Mermaz was born in the French Alps. After a degree in Fine Art and career in the visual industry in Paris, she moved to rural Suffolk (UK) in 2008 and made her way back to creative practice. Between 2016-2020 she trained at Leicester Print Workshop with artist, lithographer and writer Serena Smith.
