Prints by Shama

Bold Lines

A striking graphic print capturing urban energy.

Collectively, these works reflect a disciplined yet expressive approach to graphic design, celebrating the quiet power of line as a complete visual language.

Nature Inspired

This print explores clarity, contrast, and restraint through ink on paper. This graphic print is built from deliberate mark making, where line becomes both structure and narrative, defining form, rhythm, and negative space with precision.

The absence of colour heightens attention to composition and detail, allowing texture, balance, and visual tension to emerge through simplicity.

Worldscape

This body of work explores black and white line drawing as a worldscape, where imagined and observed environments are constructed through layered line and careful use of negative space.

Using ink on paper, the composition maps interconnected forms, structures, and terrains, inviting the viewer to navigate the scene as if moving through a visual landscape.

The restriction to black and white sharpens focus on scale, rhythm, and spatial relationships, allowing complexity to emerge from simplicity.

This work creates a cohesive world that feels both expansive and intimate, revealing how line alone can define place, movement, and atmosphere.
