SUMMARY:Photogravure Workshop with Karen Hymer
DESCRIPTION:Photogravure\nIn this one-day workshop students will learn the art of photopolymer gravure printing. Using light-sensitive steel-backed Solarplates\, participants will create 4 x 5 gravure etching prints from their photographs. This environmentally friendly process translates photographic detail into ink on paper with unparalleled beauty. \nNo prior experience with printmaking is required. All necessary aspects of printmaking will be discussed including choosing inks\, papers\, and wiping material. Wiping and inking techniques will be covered. Be prepared to marvel at the way your photograph is transformed through ink on paper. \nThe making of digital positives will be discussed\, but for the workshop itself\, please send one color or black and white image file (300 dpi at 10” on the long side) to be made into a digital positive prior to the workshop. An email with details will be provided once you are registered. \nHere is a brief outline of the process that will be presented in this workshop: \n\nStarting with your digital photograph\, a 4 x 5 transparency positive will be made\nThe positive is then laid on top of the light sensitive polymer plate and exposed to UV light\nWashing the plate in water etches the image onto the plate\nOnce hardened\, the plate is hand inked using water-soluble intaglio inks\nThe inked plate is then run through an etching press onto dampened paper\nYou take home 3 photogravure prints of your image\n\nMeet the instructor and get a preview of the process! Karen Hymer will be giving an artist lecture on Friday\, March 25 from 6:30 – 8pm. This lecture is free and open to the public. Click here for more details. \nRemnants #202\, Karen Hymer \nAbout Karen Hymer\nKaren Hymer is an artist and educator based out of Tucson\, Arizona. For the past three years she has ventured into the world of printmaking – exploring imagery in the form of photopolymer gravures. Her current work explores the effects of time on the human body and various plant life. Hymer’s richly detailed photogravures emphasize the interplay of texture\, pattern\, light and shadow in muted earth tones. The decontextualized close-ups of the body and decaying plants reveal a poetic beauty in these often over-looked subjects. \nThe Beauty of Ink on Paper – Video \n \nWatch The Beauty of Ink on Paper: Photopolymer Gravure printing from Karen Hymer to get a preview of Karen’s process! \nPhoto by CL Burns \nPhoto by CL Burns
