SAWA Monoprint Workshop

On Saturday 4 June SAWA presented a monoprint workshop with the Australian artist Damon Kowarsky.

Monoprint is the simplest and most direct form of printmaking. It needs almost no equipment except paper and ink and produces beautiful, subtle and unique works of art.

In this workshop artists learnt to produce multi colour prints through layering. They experimented with imagery and technique, and produced a suite of prints that explored the medium through the lens of their own practices.

The SAWA monoprint workshop was gratefully supported by the Australian Embassy Cairo.
