Year 11 Art Workshop

Thanks to everyone involved in the 11ART workshop last Friday! We spent the day learning Tetrapak Intaglio Printing with artist Kyla Cresswell at the East Gore Art Centre.

Tetrapak Intaglio uses discarded cartons as printing plates. Designs are cut or etched into the surface, ink is worked into the lines, the plate is wiped back, and then damp paper is pressed on to produce the print. It’s simple, resourceful, and surprisingly nuanced.

The students got a lot out of the experience, gaining confidence with a new process and leaving with a deeper understanding of printmaking through hands‑on experimentation.

Thanks to the East Gore Art Centre for hosting, Kyla Cresswell for generously sharing her practice, and Jacqui Byars for making the workshop possible!
