Harsh Collective is pleased to announce its participation in the inaugural edition of the Brooklyn Fine Art Print Fair at Powerhouse Arts. The exhibition will be on view from March 27th to 30th at booth A8 in Powerhouse Arts Grand Hall.
Harsh Collective’s presentation at the Brooklyn Fine Art Print Fair, featuring Kelly Tapia-Chuning, Evgenia Efstathiou, Lucinda Gold, and Olivia Overfield, explores how printmakers adapt their techniques to create dynamic relationships between color, process, and form. At the most fundamental level, the featured artists use processes that produce monochromatic works but expand upon these methods, innovatively extending the range of their mediums. With a curatorial focus on process, Harsh Collective’s exhibition acts as an introduction to printmaking for audiences who, like the typically painting-focused gallery, may not be as accustomed to printmaking as other art forms.

While Efstathiou dissects and reconfigures her cyanotypes, Tapia-Chuning uses her own blood as pigment in her gum prints, each examining their relationships with their body managing chronic illness. Gold’s intaglio prints span various pigments and surfaces, incrementally changing in color and texture throughout her portfolio, mimicking the ephemeral nature of her dreamlike compositions; similarly, Overfield, applying color by hand after printing her lithographs, composes planes in which memory and motif intersect and undulate to mimic the coexistence generational and personal experience.

“Printmaking is a natural next exploration for Harsh Collective, a gallery already well-versed in unorthodox and unique approaches to both paintings and works on paper,” describes gallery founder Etta Harshaw. “Our curation of prints includes a range of techniques that transcend the boundaries between the often disparate forms of two-dimensional art.”
