About this Event
Intaglio printmaking dates as far back as the 16th century, often involving expensive metal, like copper, steel, or zinc plates, and complicated engraving or chemical etching processes. However, with modern materials like Tetra Pak cartons, we can create beautiful, delicate drypoint intaglio prints at a much lower cost, in a much shorter time. In this workshop we will collaboratively play with mark making in the Tetra Pak material, learn intaglio inking and wiping techniques, and create your own small edition of prints.
