This Create Inclusion collaborative project brings together Garvald Edinburgh and Edinburgh Printmakers to support the professional development of three Garvald artists: Kwok Kin Chan, Alison Edward, and David Lorimer.

Over two ten-week blocks of masterclasses, the artists have explored a rich variety of printmaking techniques, including Lego printing, photo-exposed screen printing, mono screen printing, dry point etching, tetra pack printing, collagraph printing and copper plate etching. Under the guidance of printmaker Fiona Maher and with tailored support from Garvald staff, the artists have been able to connect deeply with different processes and embed new techniques into their practices.

The project is a testament to how providing time, expertise, and a supportive environment can transform artistic practice. By removing barriers to inclusion it has enabled these artists to expand their creative possibilities and contribute their voices to Edinburgh Printmakers vibrant community.
