Local Idiosyncrasy Print exchange

This year’s print exchange focuses on the locations we live in, specifically, their unique characteristics and quirks. Participating studios: Recess Press, Bikini Press, Solar do Barão do Serro Azul, and Atelier Piratininga.

Local traditions, stereotypes, and cultural traits are all factors which affect our trajectories as artists, whether they be positive, negative, or somewhere in between. In exchanging prints with artists from cities and countries distant from our own we may see another perspective of each others production and learn how to see our own home in a new lens:

Here is a Voicethread presentation of the processes and finished pieces of participating artists in Curitiba, São Paulo, and Minneapolis.
