"Tension is the act of stretching something tight. The word may be used to describe inner striving or unrest. It is not a coincidence that this collective of ten printmaking artists have joined together to create a visual representation of 'Tension' in 2020, during a year of global pandemic, political division and natural disasters. Inspired by this unique and difficult era, Lynk Collective generated creative ways to continue our collaborations being physically separated....Conceived as a linked narrative in image and word, the book was created in sequence, with each artist making a piece inspired by the one that came before. The resulting book is a testament to the spontaneous nature of collaboration, the importance of remaining flexible and the opportunities that come with challenging times."--Lynk Collective website.
