What is the monoprint workshop in Berlin about?

Learn the expressive process of mono-printing with Alma Sinai. Printing without a press makes this technique accessible to everyone and the results can be stunning. She will be sharing insights into her own printmaking practice (without a press) in her studio. Using monoprint expands your perception of the world around you, revealing endless possibilities for utilizing everyday life objects as tools for artistic expression and repurposing materials that might otherwise go unused.

Alma will demonstrate the mono-print technique through using printmaking ink to make impressions from found and everyday life objects such as onion/garlic mesh-bags from grocery stores, bubble wraps, aluminum foil, leaves, etc. Grasp the concept of printing without a press in a free and uninhibited way by starting off with this simple approach. Enhance your sense of pictorial balance and cohesive composition by creating multiple images during one sitting and getting into the flow of printing with a variety of textures and surfaces.

For whom is the monoprint workshop in Berlin suitable?

This workshop is suitable for all levels. You can engage in the process of printmaking even if you don’t have previous art making experience. For those with an existing art practice, mono-print can generate a fresh approach towards your drawings or paintings process through introducing new ways of creating layers and repetition.
