Westward Ho implies directional movement through space — a trajectory, an orientation, or a specific west-facing architectural condition observed in the urban environment. Printed in mokuhanga, the composition may use tonal gradation achievable through controlled baren pressure and pigment loading to suggest light falling from a particular direction, or may organize its formal elements along a horizontal axis that reads as lateral movement. The title's archaic exclamatory form evokes navigation and purpose, lending a sense of destination to what may be an otherwise abstract arrangement of architectural planes. Within Kavanagh's practice, it marks a moment where formal investigation and urban observation converge around the experience of moving through the city.
Westward Ho was created by Ann Kavanagh.
Westward Ho depicts architecture and abstract.
