Workshop with Amarjeet Kaur Nandhra: Print & Repeat

Tetra Pak printing is a straightforward and versatile introduction to the intaglio printing process. By repurposing recycled food packaging, you can create unique intaglio printing plates with an immediately printable surface, unlike other collagraph materials.In this workshop, you will print on fabric to produce original prints that can be used in textile projects or as standalone pieces. You will learn how to engrave your plates by cutting, scoring, and peeling the surface to create striking lines, marks, and tonal areas, resulting in exciting individual prints. For adults, all abilities welcome.The tutor will provide all the printing materials and sundries, small press and one Tetra Pak per person. Please bring a scalpel, small cutting mat and a range of fabrics (these could include cottons, linen, silk, transparent (roughly A4 size). You may have time to print two plates so you could bring another Tetra Pak.
Please bring a packed lunch.This special workshop is part of the Textile Study Group's UNmaking exhibition programme at The Museum in the Park.
