How it’s Made: Autographic Printmaking
Winner of Printfest’s 2019 Printmaker of the Year award, Sadie Tierney was granted a residency in South Lakes, Cumbria, where she hand-painted the positives for the ‘Utpåturaldrisur’ screenprints.
Screenprinting requires the creation of stencils from positive images on transparent sheets. When creating autographic screenprints, artists can create entirely original artworks specific to the medium. By drawing, painting, and splattering, the artists' mark-making vocabularies are evidenced in the printed layers of each edition.
