Event Details
Tetrapak printing is a fun and easy to use print form that repurposes cartons and produces amazing effects direct from your drawings.
Using the insides of cartons, you will scratch out your drawing using an etching tool, cut out shapes or make textures with different tapes to create an original design.
We will be focusing on the changing face of the High Street, past, present and future.
You will work from images of the Lowestoft High Street past and present, or even make up your own futuristic design.
Imagery can be traced onto the tetrapak to transfer your designs. You will create a number of prints in different colours and explore chine collee to make your design really stand out.
You will also add your design to a collaborative concertina book as a record of the workshop and create a replica High Street in collaboration with fellow print makers.
