Iwantja Arts Workshop, September 2013

Our next workshop is for Iwantja Arts at Indulkana in the APY Lands of South Australia. Iwantja has a long tradition of relief printing (but most forms of printmaking have been tried here) and BHE staff have been going to the community at around this time each year for 8-9 years. The most popular mediums have tended to be reduction lino and woodcut prints, but we have been printing these intaglio (by forcing the ink into the cut lines) recently and this has given the prints a new look. Basil arrives in Indulkana on Sunday for a one week workshop, assisted by current Iwantja staffer (and former BHE printer) Beth Conway.
