Workshop | Free Weekend Printmaking Workshop for Displaced Artists at Graphic Studio Dublin
مدرس: وایدا وارناگینه
شرح کارگاه
Graphic Studio Dublin is delighted to offer the Fine Art Print Bursary, 2-day Weekend Etching Workshop for those who have experienced displacement (such as refugees, asylum seekers, or those forced to leave their home country).
This course is designed for artists who may be new to printmaking but are interested in the techniques. Using a pre-pared image as a starting point – size 12×15 cm, students will apply a hard ground to a copperplate, drawing lines in the wax and then etching this in acid. A fine aquatint will then be applied allowing the creation of a number of tones on the plate. Inking up and printing on a traditional printing press will follow and students may produce a small edition of their works.
الزامات و مواد
Students will be provided with a copper plate size of 12×15 cm, plate making materials like grounds, scraping tools, paper, and inks. Students are asked to bring along some research and images to work from. These could be drawings, collages, image copies, photographs – anything that will inspire you. The plate size we work on is 12×15 cm. لطفاً از قبل برنامه‌ریزی کنید که آثار هنری شما در این اندازه قرار بگیرند.
