Concept
Participants create their own unique screen printed fabric, which is then cut and stitched together to construct textile wall hangings. Students learn improvisational piecing techniques through hand and machine sewing methods. Exploring decorative and functional surface design, students investigate quilting, pojagi patchwork, sashiko stitching, embroidery, and other needlework techniques. Color, texture, and patterns in nature inspire our imagery. Working with printed fabric as well as found and recycled fabric, students cut, print, piece, and arrange textiles to create unique works of art.

Screen Printing Using Dry Pigments
Miguel Aragon
Tuition $1,150
Code R0101-23
This workshop explores the exciting and exploratory process of directly screen-printing dry color pigments such as pastels, charcoal, and graphite to develop imagery on paper and other substrates. This experimental approach embraces exploration and stretches the conventional applications of the medium by using image alteration to create a dynamic series of varied multiples of an image. Imagery can be hand-generated or photographic. The technique is introduced as a single process procedure, which can then be used to investigate new ways to discover print qualities to strengthen images and concepts.

Layering Color and Light: Woodcut and Monoprint
Jean Gumpper
Tuition $1,150
Code R0202-23
This rigorous, engaging printmaking workshop focuses on monoprint and woodcut methods with an emphasis on layering color to produce luminous results. We begin with observational studies from the natural world and explore trace, stencil, painterly, and multiple plate monotype methods. Woodcut techniques are then added to layer transparent and opaque color, creating a radiant sense of space. We make both editioned and unique prints, alternating between structure and improvisation. This back-and-forth serves as the format for the course as we combine printing using a woodcut matrix with a variety of monoprint methods.

Electro-Etching: Exploring Surface
Malgorzata Oakes
Tuition $1,150
Code R0303-23
In this experimental workshop, open to all levels, students learn and explore various electro-etching processes. Emphasis is on safer intaglio methods and the fundamentals of electrolysis, from traditional methods of electro-line and electro-tint to innovative approaches that result in rich textures and layered imagery. Processes introduce participants to the science behind electro-etching, a non-toxic work environment, and proper equipment setup and maintenance. Students are encouraged to experiment with various resists, including BIG ground, in addition to working with salt and unconventional mark-making. By the end of this workshop, participants will have printed small editions of their own unique work embedded with various new processes.
