Staring at the Lilac Walls – A Graduate Award in Printmaking Exhibition

Posted on 9 September 2023
Caitlin Burns joined Leeds Print Workshop on a 6 week residency throughout August and September to explore printmaking within her practice. Funded by the University of Leeds, the Graduate Award in Printmaking has been developed in collaboration with Leeds Print Workshop and was initiated to nurture and retain student talent in the city.
Caitlin has focused her work during the residency on translating drawings she began making during time living in a psychiatric hospital into the repetitive and contemplative processes of printmaking to create textile hangings which have comfort in their form. She has also developed a number of booklets and zines alongside the drawings and hangings.
Private View Opening Evening – 29 September 18:00-20:30
Exhibition Open 28 September – 2 October by appointment
East Street Arts Project Space, Patrick Studios, St Mary’s Lane, Leeds, LS9 7EH
*Please email hello@leedsprintworkshop to check availability for viewings.
