Learn to Screen Print Using Transparent Colours on Paper
Led by Berkshire Printmakers
Using the techniques first developed by the Impressionist and Pontilliist artists in the 1880's. During the workshop you will learn how to create an image by over printing layers of translucent inks to make optical colour mixes to create a complex multilayered print to take home.
For beginners and Improvers - No printmaking experience necessary as Berkshire Printmakers will take you step by step: how to create paper stencils, make the inks, and get to grips with a squeegee to create your own print using the CKMY colours.. Everything is provided during the class from 30 plain and patterned screen, waterbased inks to good qaulity paper, as well as two experienced printmakers.
Dress for mess and bring a A3 envelop/portfolio to take your prints home.

Redacted Poems from Rejection Emails
Artist and producer Abhi Arumbakkam attempts to take the sting out of rejections by repurposing them as poetry.
Since 2013 Berkshire-based creative Abhi has been keeping hold of every rejection email she’s received. These range from funding bid denials to job application rejections, amounting to an impressive 258 knock-backs so far.
Drawing inspiration from American artist Austin Kleon's redacted poetry, Abhi has worked alongside local artist Grace Derriman. This exhibition is Abhi's attempt to find hidden poetry amidst all the rejections. It is Abhi’s way of turning lemons into lemonade — or, as she puts it, making manure from waste.
The exhibition is also an invitation to the audience to turn their hand at redacting email texts to discover poetry within them. Abhi firmly believes that rejection is inherent in any creative process, and that it should be embraced with both courage and vulnerability. For her, rejection isn’t a mark of shame but a badge of honour, a pertinent reminder to celebrate the inevitable fallout of daring to try.
Visitors to the exhibition will have a chance to create their own poems by redacting Abhi’s rejections emails. They can share their creations using #rejectionredacted.
