Mark Conlin is an artist from the old slowful tradition of hand cutting silhouettes. With a facile twist, a skilful manoeuvre of the scissors, he achieves extraordinary likenesses of his sitters. His silhouette artworks cut from black paper have a freshness and life-like quality. Mark keeps alive a style and technique that enlarges the scope and beauty of the old art of silhouette portraiture.
