This exhibition explores the spaces where photography and print media intersect- where light becomes ink and images are transformed through hand-pulled techniques. Artists explore techniques like photo lithography, photo-screenprinting, photopolymer intaglio, and alternative photographic processes, among others, embracing hybrid approaches to image-making.
Bring your Valentine or create one! Learn how to construct articulating paper dolls from Cyanotype scraps, collaged paper, and other bits. Choose to free hand the doll or come prepared with a printed image of a person to trace and cut out. Perhaps you and your date can collaborate by first sketching an Exquisite Corpse! Supplies are provided though your own paper and doll accoutrements are always welcomed. An optional course to take before this workshop would be the Cyanotype workshop on February 1st. Create your own material to then use for the paper doll.
This workshop is a fun family printmaking class. We will be painting stenciled mylar plates with water-based inks to create subtle and intricate monotype prints. This process allows you to paint quickly onto the mylar plates, then transfer the ink to dampened paper using an etching press. You will learn about ghost images, which can achieve wonderful effects with immediate results. This technique is completely non-toxic and the fee covers participation for 1 parent and elementary school age child.
Join us for a fun and creative 2-hour printmaking workshop designed for parents and children to explore the art of Tetra Pak printmaking!
