Photopolymer Gravure

  • Light Art Space 209 W Broadway Silver City, NM (map)

Sunday, October 11, 2026

Light Art Space, 209 W Broadway, Silver City, NM 88061

10AM - 4PM

Learn photopolymer gravure printing with visual artist and Light Art Space Director Karen Hymer. In this one-day workshop, participants will make gravure etching prints from their photographs using light-sensitive, steel-backed polymer plates—an environmentally friendly process that transforms photographic detail into rich ink-on-paper prints.

No printmaking experience is required. Inks, papers, wiping materials, and inking and wiping techniques will be covered. Participants will take home 5–7 photogravure prints of their images.

Digital positives will be discussed, and participants will send image files in advance to be prepared before the workshop. Details will be emailed after registration.

This workshop is hosted independently by Light Art Space in Silver City, NM.

Registration will take place via their own website.
