Alex Lukas
Alex Lukas is an artist living and working in Santa Barbara, California (USA). Their approach to color is often practical, and their approach to printmaking focuses on the distribution of printed ‘zines and ephemera, alongside the incorporation of printmaking techniques as tools for drawing and painting. Their elaborate publishing projects and research-based projects are created with Risography, serigraphy, and offset lithographic printmaking techniques incorporated into multifaceted, cross-disciplinary visual projects.
Janet Ballweg
Janet Ballweg is an artist living and working in Bowling Green, Ohio (USA). Her approach to color is relative with an eye toward the nostalgic, and her approach to printmaking is based on construction, deconstruction, and re-construction. Janet’s work focusing on the domestic landscape is created using screenprinting techniques coupled with digital 3d modeling and 2d imaging, and she also works with polymer plate intaglio methods.
Joseph Lupo
Joseph Lupo is an artist living and working in Morgantown, West Virginia (USA). His approach to color is appropriation-based, and his approach to printmaking involves concept dictating process. Joseph’s comic imagery, with its confusing or poetic text, is created using CMYK silkcreen, relief and intaglio in combination with laser-cut plates, and risograph printing.
Lyndon Barrois Jr
Lyndon Barrois Jr. is an artist living and working in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (USA). Their approach to color is guided by the structures of commercial printing and civic design, and their approach to printmaking is scrappy and vernacular. Lyndon’s project-based work spans across painting, collage, and sculpture, and often makes use of transfer print techniques, and occasionally lithographic or silkscreen processes.
David Lopes
David Lopes is an artist living and working in Porto (Portugal). He often works with analogous hues in his approach to color, and his approach to printmaking is interdisciplinary. The multi-layered surfaces of his work are made through etching processes, and he also works in watercolor painting. David is currently enrolled in a PhD program in Fine Arts at Universidade do Porto, where he is also working within the faculty on a new printmaking research center, In Pure Print. David focuses his own study on photomechanical printing processes from the 19th century.
Jason Urban and Leslie Mutchler
Jason Urban and Leslie Mutchler are collaborators living and working in Brooklyn, NY. Their approach to color is ever-evolving and their approach to printmaking is expansive and multi-disciplinary. Their project-based, research-intensive work is created with a wide variety of analog and digital printmaking techniques. Currently they are developing a body of work called Geochromatics, an open-ended inquiry into color and its representation in science, pseudo-science, and the spiritual.
Nicole Pietrantoni
Nicole Pietrantoni is an artist living and working in Walla Walla, Washington (USA). Her intuitive approach to color involves CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) halftone printing process and she takes an experimental and expansive approach to printmaking. Nicole’s colorful folded paper installations explore how humans relate to nature through using inkjet printing, CMYK and silkscreen processes and bookbinding, along with photography, text and ongoing collaborations with poets. Currently she is working on a new series of work for a solo show at Platform Arts in Belfast, Northern Ireland in 2021.
