Nana Shiomi will demonstrate woodcut printing with water-based ink and hand printing using contemporary Baren.
Nana Shiomi was born in Japan, and studied at the Tama Art University (BA, MA) and the Royal College of Art. She has been living and working in London since 1989. Shiomi makes contemporary woodcut prints, often using traditional Japanese icons. Her printing technique is based on the traditional Japanese way of printing, but with new materials and tools. Recently, her works have been well received at: the "-Matrix: An Unstable Reality-", the 28th Biennial of Graphic Arts Ljubljana, SLOVENIA; Northern Print Biennale, Newcastle; Summer Exhibition at the Royal Academy, London; and "Daughters of Sun Goddess -Japanese Femininity-" at the National Museum in Helsinki, FINLAND. Her "Basic Room - Zan Getsu -" was short listed for the "Insight - Image of the Year Award -" at the RA Summer Exhibition in 2006.
