No Pressure: Combining Hand-Set Type and Pressure Prints
This workshop will combine two very different processes on the Vandercook proof press: hand-set typography and cut-paper pressure prints. The ethereal, fuzzy quality of the pressure print process creates layered imagery full of depth and variation that will contrast with crisp, clean text printed from metal and wood type. Students will experiment with multiple layers of pressure prints to which they will add text. Our formats will be broadsides or folded books. We will cover the basics of setting metal and wood type, creating paper matrices for pressure prints, and printing editions on the letterpress. Expect to create multiple experimental prints as well as one or two small editions. All levels. Letterpress studio.
