Vendors – Festival of Original Prints

AIM Publishing

I like making zines and artist books. Using various printmaking methods, combined with letterpress, each project takes as long as it takes. The shape of the ideas change and grow as each page unfolds. I often find the company of other printmakers inspirational. I’m currently working on a combined zine and artist book Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird, a poem by Wallace Stevens.

For Printopia 2024 the group has chosen to depict the famous Persian romance between the Sasanian king Khosrow II and Armenian princess Shirin, who becomes queen of Persia (Persian: خسرو و شیرین) as told by the Persian poet Nizami Ganjavi (1141–1209).

Scenes from this historic love story, along with classic motifs from the Sasanic era, have been created through digital illustrations, silkscreen and woodcuts, printed onto paper, fabric and wood.

Mark Phobos

Based in Northland and working out of Te Kowhai Print Trust in Whangarei, my prints draw inspiration from tattoo culture, infusing symbolism like skulls, snakes, and unique motifs into the medium.

Going beyond convention, I explore the dynamic possibilities of printmaking, pushing boundaries of visual expression. Each
meticulously crafted piece fuses influences from contemporary and historical printmaking masters with the captivating world of tattoos.

With a dedication to creating unique compositions, I challenge norms to produce prints that captivate and push artistic boundaries.

Nineteen99

Nineteen99 is a fusion of Afro-futurism and DIY creativity, built on storytelling, cultural worldbuilding, and representation. It’s about pushing heritage forward through bold visuals and intricate details, creating space for identities often unseen. Each piece is an exploration—of history, empowerment, and self-expression—translating complex ideas into something tangible, wearable, and alive.

Blue Bathtub Press presents PAY & DISPLAY

Blue Bathtub is a studio/ residency program/ community project/ education space and a passion project for artist Toni Mosley.

PAY & DISPLAY was inspired by other vending machine projects only with a twist.
First: it dispenses mini prints making art affordable —only each print is wrapped up, so it is a Lucky Dip which art you will receive.
Second: it builds community as each piece comes with an artist Bio to allow the collector to connect to the artist.
Third: 100% proceeds goes to the charity Kindness Collective.– https://www.kindness.org.nz

To participate each print requires 2 – $1 coins

Joanna Fieldes

Coming from a background as a painter, I have developed a strong love of printmaking. My print work can be categorised, as monotype (often multilayered) or monoprint. I also like to hand colour ‘ghost prints’, which are usually a faded second impression of the initial print that I have put through the printing press.

Vessels dominate my artwork as unique containers that bear links to my forebears’ colonial culture and that of the Indigenous within our shared environment and habitat. My work articulates narratives that bring to life Aotearoa New Zealand’s past and present. Through my art I take history for a ‘walk’.

Contemporary Printmaking Philippines

The contemporary seems to be located at art market centres in the world of the Global North. Yet, contemporary takes several different utterances from the archipelago. The contemporary is positioned to the now with sights on the future, but archipelagic contemporary shares many shores from different waves. This is evident from Contemporary Printmaking Philippines. From the islands, we bring to you tidal contemporariness where mark-making is tethered to our vast legacies amidst the many possibilities of the now and tomorrow. – JSPA

Paora Tiatoa

Formerly an abstract shape formation painter, I switched to Contemporary Maori art in my third year of study at art school. The last 5 years I combined the two art forms creating what I call ACMA – Abstract Contemporary Maori Art.

My new 100 series of work reveals this process in finer detail, although my new prints look like one pass hand screen prints, the aesthetic process is not. My images are scattered on 13 screens, all of my images are from a book Taonga Maori in the British museum. Minus two images on two screens which are personal screens to me but have used in this series.

I then abstract, make stencils, assemble, construct and make multi-individual passes of ink to produce the final image. It’s labour intensive but the outcome is worth it.

Trinity Landis

Flowers hold a lot of symbolism, and that is something that many cultures share, but for me, flowers are something that hold memory. This year I have been working with Intaglio to help depict those memories.

As a kid I grew up in an almost rural part of California where I spent the majority of my time hiding away outside and finding wonder in the smaller things around me, like flowers. As time went on, I started associating the people I grew up with certain flowers, for both things heavily influenced my childhood.
