Etch & INk

I am absolutely thrilled to be part of this exhibition at Collaboration in New Plymouth. This exhibition brings together an eclectic mix of printmaking techniques, offering a unique opportunity to appreciate the diverse and dynamic nature of this art form. As a professional printmaker, I am eager to showcase my work alongside such talented peers who each bring their own distinct styles and approaches to printmaking.

For those who can't make it to New Plymouth in person, I highly encourage you to explore the exhibition online. This virtual experience provides a wonderful platform to engage with the artworks from the comfort of your home.

Perspective : Diverse Voices In Print

September 14th - October 28th

Opening Friday September 13th 5.30pm

Plateau Printmakers are a collective of passionate artists who regularly gather to exchange ideas and explore innovative printmaking techniques. Our journey began with our first exhibition in 2016 at the Taupo Museum and Art Gallery, and since then, each member has continued to refine and evolve their unique style.

Many of us are proud members of the Print Council of Aotearoa New Zealand (PCANZ), actively participating in workshops and exhibitions that stretch across New Zealand and beyond. Our experiences span workshops throughout the UK, Barcelona, and even an artist residency in Tuscany, as well as global Zoom sessions with fellow printmakers. Individually, our work has been featured in national exhibitions, and as a collective, we’ve hosted events within the community to foster a deeper appreciation for the art of printmaking.

For the past three years, we’ve been active participants in Printopia: A New Zealand Festival of Print in Auckland, further showcasing our commitment to the craft.

We are a group of creatives who have been working together for a number of years building the profile of visual arts in Taupo.

From that bond of working together, we found we collaborated well, inspired each other and built a mutual respect for each other as artists and as friends. This strong commitment to supporting each other to grow as artists continues under the name of Artful Minds – for us representing minds full of art - smart, intelligent, collaborative, mindful.

What makes this group of established and emerging artists vibrant is the variety of mediums we all work in and the ability as individuals to evolve and continually grow. Our focus of working together on our own artwork and creative development has resulted in a fourth exhibition at Lava Glass.

You all will have received an email from Artful Minds shari.ng the Google Docs folder with you all - it contains the group blurb, Sales list and labels - please look for the labels sheet copy with your info in. As in the message, feel free to add your own info or if you have problems just send your label info to me by email and I can enter it for you.
