Exhibition Tour and Demonstration: Pulp Painting Papermaking

Learn more about the artworks in Cut/Fold/Press and try your hand at creating handmade paper art. Pulp painting is a low-pressure and experimental papermaking method in which dyed pulp is applied to freshly pulled sheets of paper. Through “drawing” with bottled pulp and applying pulp with spoons, brushes, and everyday materials, paper makers can create expressive or controlled images and patterns. As the pulp dries, the dyed fibers bond with the base pulp to create a unified image that blends painting and papermaking. Free, and all are welcome!
