In this workshop, students will create intaglio prints by reducing, reusing, and recycling common kitchen staples such as almond milk and broth/stock containers. Shelf-stable TetraPak products serve as the “plate” where students will be able to draw into or “etch” their designs. All supplies will be provided, however students are encouraged to bring resource images, reference photos or original drawings to inspire. Students will leave the workshops with several small prints (think 4” x 6” or smaller) learn a bit about the intaglio process, and have room to experiment!About the instructor:
Lauren Suveges is an artist and educator originally from Pittsburgh, PA currently teaching fine art and ceramics at Siuslaw High School in beautiful Florence, OR. She attended Otterbein College in Columbus, OH and earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Painting and Printmaking with a minor in Psychology. Her earlier work focused on portraiture and relationships, knowledge, meaning, and misunderstandings around race and community. After moving to Oregon in 2007, she earned her masters in Arts and Administration from the University of Oregon, worked in museum education, education technology, and community arts programming before going back to school for her Masters in Teaching with a focus on Arts Education at the secondary level. Since moving to Oregon, her work has become more centered around the natural world and as a coastal resident, the mountains, the forest, and the sea are central to her inspiration. She has shown at small galleries throughout the northwest including two entries in the Karin Clarke BIennial in 2019 and 2021. Most recently, she has received the Art Teacher Professional Practice Award to attend the 2024 Creative Arts Community at Menucha along the Columbia River Gorge this summer.
