Bess Frimodig

At the age of 16, I moved to Japan to learn printmaking and since then, I work with Japanese woodcut Mokuhanga, Serigraphy, Intaglio and Linocut, lithography and mixed techniques culminating in large scale installations, often co-produced together with the public. I co-create with communities, public institutions such as the NHS and scientists responding to the challenges of the environmental crisis and current systems as well as giving public talks on socially engaged printmaking at Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Fine Arts Academy in Hangzhou China, the Art Academy in Stockholm Sweden and many more.

 

Most of all, my work celebrates the beauty and power of life, in colours and print.

 

I see that positive change is possible. I see that imagination makes a new world possible. I wholeheartedly work towards safeguarding our environment and freedoms through print, with people and by play.
