Tetra-Pak Printmaking with a Pasta Machine
Tetra-Pak Printmaking with a Pasta Machine
Learn how to create eco-friendly intaglio prints by upcycling Tetra-Pak food packaging (like milk cartons) into printable plates. Then we will explore two types of printing processes: on the press and with a pasta maker for at-home printing. This process is entirely non-toxic. Tetra-Pak plates, ink, and paper will be provided, but bring a sketchbook to work with for the day.
All experience levels welcome, no prior printmaking knowledge required.

Kristian Battell
Kristian Battell is an artist working and living in northern New Jersey, having recently completed her Masters of Fine Art at the School of Visual Arts in New York, NY. She always considered herself more of a traditional printmaker, having a BFA in Printmaking and Art of the Book from Purchase College, but the pandemic has shifted her practice to sculpture and installation. These sculptures focus on climate change and upcycling the materials that surround her in her everyday life. She loves bringing this practice to a wider audience, especially by teaching kids about our impact on the environment and the change we can make through art.
