Artist

Mercereau, C.

Mercereau, C. is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

This artist spent years carving blocks in a cramped Paris attic, inking each sheet by hand until their fingers stained blue. They were the kind of printmaker who treated every line like a rumor—stretching it, softening it, letting it curl at the edges. You’ll find their best work in the H Beard Print Collection, where a single sheet of paper holds entire conversations in just a few carved words.
