Stencils, pochoir, masks are definitions for the same printing technique that allows extensive experimentation. And it will be this technique to be used to create a self-produced book.
Experiment and play with geometric shapes, but also with alternative forms of the book.
Accompanied by the unmatched expertise of Eleanor Cumer, multifaceted artist of the book, we will dive into a world of color and space to create our own individual world of paper.

After a first presentation of a series of folds to create a book from a single sheet, it will be illustrated and demonstrated the stencil technique with tests of printing with recycled materials. Then the participants will realize their mock-up depending on the folding model chosen by each one, and finally will move to the actual making of the book.

“In her artist-books Eleonora makes an unbelievable use of patterns and textures, that, together with the three-dimensional elaboration of the "object book", give life to original works, between sculptures and installations, indeed amazing”. (patternprintsjournal.com)
