Printmaking in Pakistan

In February Damon Kowarsky taught a three week printmaking workshop at Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture in Karachi.

During this time he worked with final year students from IVSAA, Karachi School of Art, Karachi University and the Karachi Arts Council to teach two plate colour etching. The students completed one or two prints on subjects including architecture, politics, textile design and contemporary life in Pakistan.

This was Damon's first visit to Karachi but not to Pakistan, where he taught for six months in 2007 at BNU Lahore. It was good to return and renew friendships and work once again with students, artists and colleagues.

Summer Residency in Melbourne

In January Damon Kowarsky will be working with Tara Gilbee on a collaborative drawing project at Level 17 Art Space, Victoria University.

This project began early in 2009 and has progressed through the regular exchange of drawings via post.

The thematic material explored in the drawings is open. Ideas are suggested in response to each other's drawings as well as themes taken from the main body of our work. To maintain a unity of expression the size of each drawing has been set and a certain constraint on materials observed. This second protocol was arrived at organically, and like the subject matter is constantly open to re-evaluation and transformation.
