March – April ‘Open Weekends‘

Pressed and Pulled: An Exhibition of Work by Dot Carter and Sarah Ward

Discover the versatility of contemporary printmaking in this exciting exhibition, featuring a range of techniques including screen printing, intaglio, embossing, collage, and stitch.

The studio will be open to visitors from 11am to 5pm on the following dates: 28th–29th March, 3rd–6th, 11th–12th, 18th–19th April.

The exhibition showcases delicate printed and stitched pieces on fabric alongside bold, vibrant abstracts on handmade papers. A selection of framed works by studio members will also be on display, with cards and browser pieces available for purchase. This is a fantastic opportunity to explore the details and techniques of all things print and to meet the artists who created them. We look forward to welcoming you to the studio!

Upcoming: Mini Print OPEN Exhibition 23rd – 31st May

Small is beautiful! An exhibition presenting a feast of original prints in all media, sized just 10cm x 10cm. Mounted but unframed, all at an affordable price of £45.

This is an open call exhibition building on the success of this event in 2024, when we were able to present the work of 80 printmakers from across the country.

Key Points

We will not be selecting work. Instead, we are issuing a limited number of paid entry ‘tickets’. So it’s first-come, first-served, and all ticket-holders’ prints will be hung, provided that specifications and deadlines are met.
Tickets will become available in February/March, dates tbc.
All prints in the show will be offered for sale for £45.
Commission on any sales will be 15%

Dimensions and Display

Size and presentation of work:
All work will be displayed unframed, in uniform, soft white window mounts sourced by the studio. The mounts will measure 20 x 20cm (to fit standard-sized, readily available picture frames), with an aperture opening of 11.5 x 11.5 cm. Prints to be exhibited should be 10cm x 10cm or less, supplied on paper 13 x 13cm and no larger than 18cm x 18cm, suitable for mounting within the above parameters. This allows a narrow margin for signature and edition numbering, if applicable, to show within the window. Please see the image below for guidance.
