WORKSHOPS 2026 | “Low-Tech Editions: Field Notes” with
@xpatrickthomas
At Boisbuchet, where landscape and daily life offer a constant source of stimuli, printed matter becomes a tool for recording and translating these experiences into physical form.
In this workshop, participants will explore the relationship between observation and publication. Working within a walking radius of the Domaine, they will collect material from the site: notes, sketches, recordings, and other forms of field documentation. These observations will become the starting point for a series of small printed publications. Each participant will produce an edition of at least three publications, developed through a combination of analogue reproduction techniques.
Processes may include MiScreen™ silkscreen, cameraless photography, direct exposure, carbon transfer, Tetrapak intaglio, contact printing, kitchen lithography, and photogenic drawing. Participants are encouraged to adopt a fully analogue approach, allowing the physical properties of materials and processes to guide the outcome.
