Developed in the late 18th Century, stone lithography is a traditional printmaking process where an image is drawn on and then printed from a flat slab of limestone.

Calum Wallis
Calum Wallis is an artist whose practice picks at how we might relate to deep time over the course of a human lifespan. A childhood spent roaming among the hills and rivers of the Highlands has informed a love of wild places and especially a love of stone, which has been the focus of his practice since moving to Dundee in 2013. His works in drawing and printmaking often study geological forms with the intention of learning them in close detail so that a revisit might starkly reveal the change wrought on the earth over a short period.
