Concept
Screen printing, also known as silkscreen or serigraphy, is one of the most adaptable print processes and the results are dynamic and multi-layered. This exploratory workshop delves into the medium of screen printing and encourages students to experiment by printing on a wide variety of materials, creating unexpected and tactile results. Paper, canvas, wood, metal, glass and most plastics can be printed utilizing screen printing. Students learn various methods to expedite their concepts to finished products. Special attention is placed on individual needs, whether a beginner or experienced printer.
