Introducing [ST]-inky Fingers 22/01/09 @ Twisted Pepper



So Whats [ST]-inky Fingers all about?

We are a group of fine art students , currently enrolled in the fine print department at the National College of art and design. We are a diverse group of individuals with a wide range of artistic concerns. The exhibition will demonstrate many forms of Print practise from the traditional processes of etching and lithography through to digital and photographic/image capture. The overall title of this exhibition is "The Extraordinary in the Everyday" and this has allowed for the individual artists to interpret/explore/define through wide ranging conceptual concerns. There is no house style here rather a demonstration of individuality and group endeavor under "The Extraordinary in the Everyday".
