After Hours: Studio - Dry Point Etching

Join us for an After Hours Studio session inspired by The Falkenberg Encyclopaedia, a long-term public artwork by Olivia Plender installed throughout the Argus Centre in Sweden. The Falkenberg Encyclopaedia takes the form of a fictional encyclopaedia, bringing together imagined histories, overlooked figures and alternative ways of understanding the world.

What To Expect

As part of this relaxed, hands-on After Hours Studio session, you’ll create your own drypoint etchings inspired by the curious illustrations found in early encyclopaedias. While learning this timeless printmaking technique, we’ll also consider the gaps, omissions and myths surrounding women’s healthcare in scientific and public knowledge; themes explored in , only display at Modern Art Oxford 23rd May- 16th August 2026.

We're offering these tickets on a pay-what-you-can basis (17.50, £22.50 or £27.50), with higher-price options helping to support Modern Art Oxford as a charity and keep events like this accessible to more people. Tickets include all necessary materials and a complimentary drink to enjoy during the session.
