One of the prints I made based off my time in San Potito and @fate_lab ! San potito is a small town of 2000, in the mountains in southern Italy. The food is fresh, wine comes by the barrel, stray dogs and cats roam the streets and they take 2 hour lunch breaks everyday.
Thank you to everyone who I met during my time here, I hope we can meet again one day ♥️
Here's how I got from the middle of no where in Canada (revelstoke), to San Potito Sannitico, Italy! I left revelstoke on the 19th and got here on the 21st- drove 5 hours, took 2 planes and 5 trains.
San Potito Sannitico is where @fate_lab is located, I'll be here for 2 weeks screenprinting!!! Thank you so much to everyone at @fate_lab for all the help getting here and selecting me, I'm honored!!!! Can't wait to start printing and drink 5000 coffees! Yahoo!
Oh ya and the strap to hold my paper tube broke getting on train #5
Nuovi arrivi in residenza al C:L.A.C. 🌿
Siamo felici di accogliere le prossime artiste selezionate dalla nostra open call:
Prerna Bajaj (Pakistan, 2001) e Katja Ewart (Canada, 2000)
Prerna è un’artista e scrittrice che lavora tra immagine e parola. Attraverso tecniche di stampa d’arte, come incisione e acquaforte, costruisce narrazioni intime e poetiche, dove memoria, relazioni e identità prendono forma su carta.
Katja è un’artista multidisciplinare che unisce serigrafia, fotografia analogica e video sperimentale. Il suo lavoro esplora il rapporto tra immagini e memoria, tra documentazione e realtà, attraverso processi che combinano analogico e digitale.
Due pratiche diverse, ma una ricerca comune: indagare il segno, l’immagine e il loro rapporto con il vissuto.
📍 Nei prossimi giorni lavoreranno alle Cupole – C:L.A.C., entrando in dialogo con lo spazio e il territorio.
✨ Come sempre, i momenti condivisi saranno occasione per incontrarle e conoscere da vicino i loro processi.
Seguite il loro lavoro: @smoke.r00m@ewart.studio
il ritratto di Prerna è opera di: @hoshigum1

I made this one back in 2024. Film photo of mount revelstoke scanned at a high quality, separated into CMYK, then printed through 300mesh silkscreen. This one I left out the yellow layer because I love blue

My studio is up and RUNNING!!! It's taken so long and I've moved all my items 3 times in one year, but it was so worth it!!
Sorting my screenprinting set up in town has been tricky to say the least, but I've finally got a system dialed (enough) to be printing my first tests:) more to come! Thanks to everyone who has supported me :')
Never would have thought that I would be working out of the 2nd floor of a church but hey life is crazy and here I am. If you're walking or driving by give me a honk!! Also thank you to @stokefmradio for playing bangers all the time xx
