Japanese Experience @ PULP (Papermaking & Mokuhanga)
About this Event
This 3-day workshop is an introduction to Japanese Papermaking and Printmaking within a comfortable, professional artist studio in Glasgow.
Participants will process and form specialist plant fibres such as Abaca, Kozo, Gampi and Mitsumata to make a lovely selection of papers in various sizes on the first day. An introduction to Japanese Mokuhanga printing will then follow over the next 2 days.
Woodblocks will be carved and a small edition printed on Japanese papers using traditional cutting knives, Japanese inking brushes and barens (printing pads). Printing on beautiful Kozo paper, you will produce unique prints in the Japanese woodblock tradition. Demonstrations, samples of work will also be shown.
Taught by expert printmaker / artist Elspeth Lamb in combination with Alison Newman @ PULP: Paper Arts Workshop. Both are experienced tutors and have visited and studied with masters in Japan.
During this course the Parade Artist Winter Fayre will be in progress within the building, providing an opportunity to purchase unique gifts directly from makers. To celebrate the festive season, Pulp will also provide some seasonal treats during the 3 days.
