Project Ability’s annual print exhibition is a culmination of the experimentation of printmaking techniques by Project Ability artists throughout the year and features work from across all three workshop programmes: Aspire, Create and Connect. The selected work demonstrates a strong commitment to printmaking and its creative possibilities. Press to paper features the work of 30 artists highlighting the years’ workshops and aims to lay a definitive frame around the creative process of printmaking. All manner of printed matter is featured in the exhibition; a selection of lithographs, monoprints, etchings, drypoints, ceramics and limited edition multiples.

The exhibition tests the historical expectations of print and each artist creates work that uses the traditional printmaking process as a point of departure to create something new; demonstrating a technical awareness with an evolving familiarity with the process and the investigative explorations of an artist trying their hand at a new medium.
