Workshop "Screen Printing"

Screen printing is a printmaking technique basing on the principle of the stencil. It allows many ways of creative printing, also without photo exposure or big equipment.
This class teaches screen printing from the scratch.

After a general introduction, first small-size works are printed with a simple device, the screen-flag. Afterwards works of bigger size are printed by tearing and cutting stencils, followed by working with screenfiller and two ways of monotype screenprinting. We then will work with the photo stencil, and each participant can concentrate on a special project on paper or textiles with the just learned techniques.

The class includes information on how to build up a simple studio with a non-uv exposure unit.

The participants receive a script. The workshop is suitable for beginners to professional printmakers.
