Fools’ Way is a solar plate etching representative of Tillman’s new Humanography series. “Humanography: Eidola and the Glorious City” unfolds as two parallel worlds coexisting through dialogue between absence and presence. In Fools’ Way, “The Glorious City” has been left to exist as a stage of absences, barely carrying the shape of the lost creator. Located in central London on the south bank of the Thames River, the Bankside Gallery has become a center of excellence for prints and water color, hosting both the Royal Watercolour Society and the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers.
