Liam Biswell - Experimental printmaking

Spend time exploring and experimenting
​with monoprinting and dry-point etching 

Picture
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 Design Department at the University of Westminster 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.
​Date: Wednesday 20th & Thursday 21st October 2021

​The studio will be open from 9.15am and the workshop will start at 9.30am until  4.30pm (ish) each day.

Cost: £210 (this includes  some materials)

A £105 deposit will secure your place.

​
Please note: Places are limited and are available on a first come, first served basis; to secure your place please ensure that your deposit is paid at the time of booking.

There will be home-made biscuits with morning coffee, a light seasonal lunch and an enticing cake with a pot of afternoon tea.
