Weekly Linocut Meetings!

In this workshop, you will work on your linocut projects, with the help and advice of our awesome and friendly team – Magda, Majka or Ioannis. You can create stunning prints with different effects and styles, from bold and graphic to delicate and detailed. You will also meet other linocut fans and exchange your tips and inspiration. You will have access to our amazing studio, where you can use all the tools and machines you need.

During the workshop, you can:

  • Draw, cut, and print
  • Consult your projects and ideas
  • Use our tools, inks, and big printing press
  • Print your old matrixes and projects

This workshop consists of  2.5-hour sessions, once per week for a month. You can work at your speed and adjust the sessions to your needs. You can work on your projects during the workshop, or continue working at home if you have time and materials. You can also bring some matrixes that you already have and print them during our meetings.

Each participant will get a small welcome pack at the first class, with a misprint bag, linocut block, and various printmaking papers, including our very own handmade paper.

Come and join us at Misprint Studio and have a blast with linocut printing. Enjoy a nice atmosphere and an artistic getaway from your daily routine.

Hi, Majka here! I am a graduate of the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw, Poland, and I am currently a doctoral student at this university in graphic arts.

I create my works in many techniques, such as linocut, silkscreen, and metal techniques.

I am inspired by what is found in the Metaxy space; when a person is between two poles of existence: fragments, understatements, memories, traces, obliterations, and excerpts.

I have been working in artistic printmaking since 2009, constantly improving my skills and experimenting with form and techniques.

Magdalena Weber

Hi, this is Magda! I am a graduate of the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw, majoring in Art Mediation and Graphic Design. I am an artist, graphic designer, and cultural animator.
I create mainly in the linocut technique, which is a relief printing technique. I am inspired by human beings, their stories and emotions, textures and traces that we can find in the nature around us.

Linocut appeared in my life in 2010 and has stayed permanently. Since then, I have experimented with different methods of creating a matrix, different ways of cutting, as well as with printing itself.

She was awarded a scholarship from the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage in 2020, from the Mayor of Wroclaw in 2019, and a three-time scholarship from the Rector of the Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw. Her works have been repeatedly presented at international competitions and biennials around the world, including Armenia, Romania, the USA, and Argentina.
