Liam Biswell - Experimental printmaking
Spend time exploring and experimenting

As an artist working predominantly with print and photography Liam's art explores concepts relating to journey.
Liam says that "a fondness for seeking cultural differences and a keen interest in chasing the unfamiliar has kept my curiosity thriving as I continue to embark on diverse journeys around the globe. Journeys can offer a state of seclusion and isolation that is emotionally stimulating. It is a psychological pleasure to temporarily be and feel entirely alone, disregarding the external physical world.
My work conveys an emotive record of the thoughts and feelings I experience in particular locations. Ideas of solitude, alienation and anonymity are explored through my practice".
Currently Liam is working in the Printmaking Department at the University for the Creative Arts alongside running 'Printmaking Workshops'

During this two day workshop you will explore the popular drypoint etching process in combination with monoprinting, and experience using the etching press to create your own unique prints.
We'll use a range of reference material to explore colour and texture in this experimental workshop. Along the way you will learn about materials and equipment, composition and processes, making your final prints onto both paper and fabric using high quality inks.
