Printmaking with Tetra pak and chile colle-  Saturday 5th Sept 10-4.30

Explore the sustainable side of printmaking! This hands-on course invites students to discover the creative potential of recycled materials, transforming everyday packaging, such as Tetra Paks and other discarded items, into dynamic printmaking plates, combined with the delicate layering technique of chine collé.

Perfect for both seasoned artists and beginners, this course covers the fundamentals of printmaking using unconventional, recycled surfaces, learning techniques for repurposing Tetra Paks and other packaging as unique printing plates, alongside chine collé methods for bonding fine papers to your prints for added colour, texture and depth.

You'll learn sustainable, low-cost methods for creating textures, patterns, and layered compositions, and explore how to combine recycled materials with inks, paints, and chine collé papers for striking visual effects. Join us to rethink art materials and turn the discarded into extraordinary works of print!
