I am delighted and very excited to announce that some of my degree show prints will be included in the upcoming exhibition “Printed Matter:::::/Print Process.”  Organised by Sean Scott – a 4th year Illustration student at DJCAD with whom I worked for the Edgar Schmitz “Sindanao” opening – the exhibition aims to bring together a whole variety of artists and designers who work closely with print in their practice.  The result will be an eclectic mix of styles and techniques, demonstrating the incredible versatility of print in all its processes on an international scale; Sean has received submissions from Scotland, England and even Canada!

I have submitted the following:

You may see one, you may see all three!  Either way this promises to be not only a fantastic exhibition but an opportunity to find yourself sharing a space with processes you may not have seen before.  And the only way to truly engage with prints is to see them face-to-face, stick your nose up against them and get a sense of the physical presence of ink on paper.  I find this so with all prints but particularly mine – they just don’t compare on a computer screen.

Printed Matter:::::/Print Process opens for preview at DJCAD this Thursday 22nd February 2013 and will run for a month.

As the first major print-related shindig I have been involved in since graduating you can expect lots more on this over the next couple of weeks!  In the meantime keep an eye on the Printed Matter:::::/Print Process blog.

A Print for Maggies: Exhibition + Preview

Things are coming together nicely with the Maggies Calender it seems, and earlier tonight I received the following message:

Hello everyone,

First of all a very large thank you to you all on behalf of the small team who helped Irving Miskell-Reid of Freedom Hair Experience, with the project to produce a limited edition art wall calendar to celebrate Maggie’s 10th anniversary in Dundee.

We have been delighted with the response to our request for sponsorship and we are pleased to say that the entire cost of publishing the calendar is now covered and so all proceeds from the sale of the calendar throughout 2013 will go directly to Maggie’s Dundee.

The prints  – that is, all the submissions received for the original competition, will be on display in Freedom Hair Experience from Friday 30th November until mid January.
We would be delighted if you could join us at an exhibition preview and wine reception.

Please see attached flyer for details and if you could RSVP to let us know if you are bringing someone with you, which you are welcome to do, it would help us with the catering.

Sorry for the short notice but we wanted to ensure all sponsorship was in place before we held the preview.

Please note that we are inviting the press to a photocall at 7.30pm on that evening.

 Regards and heartfelt thanks again

 Anne

So as of tomorrow you can pop into Freedom to see my (and many other!) prints adorning their stylish walls.  And of course have a chat with the Freedom team, they’re great chat.

Sadly, however, I won’t be able to attend the opening tomorrow as I have already made plans and the email came out at such short notice!  But thought I would pass the message on.
