Charles Danby
Charles Danby studied at Norwich School of Art and Kingston University (BA) before graduating from the Slade (MFA) in 2002. He lives and works in London, as a curator, writer and artist, currently lectures in Fine Art at Loughborough University and is a co-founder of PROJECKT, a curatorial research partnership that broadcasts projects across the internet and presents work internationally. His work deals with lines and marking primarily in pencil, more often changing the medium on which this technique is employed than the technique itself. He sees the pencil as intimate, responsive to differences in weight getting close to the page, standing in contrast to the mass-produced and cold printed media upon which he places the marks.

Graphite and glicee print on hahnemuhle rag, Edition of 65
Danby favours a monochromatic colour range for these works, which he describes as a more refined medium. Instead of the expanded range of colours he works with the more subtle range of weights for marks. The graphite pencil can make quite violent and physical marks, as well as being responsive to light and intimate touches.
