Description
STENCIL, SCREEN PRINTING, FABRIC
Have you seen the T-shirts in the Andy Warhol and Keith Haring exhibition? There you can discover T-shirts printed with pictures, figures or text. But how does the color get onto the fabric? We use a special technique for this: screen-printing. Andy Warhol, for example, created many of his artworks using screen-printing.
In the workshop, you can learn this technique and try it out for yourself. Create your own simple image using scissors and paper. We will then print this stencil onto fabric bags using the screen, paint and another tool—a squeegee. At the end you will have your own wearable work of art. You are also welcome to bring shirts, bags, dresses or other fabrics. Please note that our colors hold best on natural fibers.
The workshop will take place in the ticket-free area of the Factory space (lower level) and is run by the artist Tabitha Nagy.
