- Episode #184: Filmed in 2002 at the printmaking workshop Harlan & Weaver, artist Kiki Smith discusses the challenges and pleasures of printmaking. Shown working on a portrait titled "Two" (2002), Smith and the workshop's master printers make numerous proofs and revisions until she is pleased with the image. Using ink on paper, Smith combines traditional and self-taught etching techniques in her attempts to represent the subtleties of human flesh.
Kiki Smith's work explores the body as a receptacle for knowledge, belief, and storytelling. Her sculptures, drawings, and prints are often meditations on mortality, incorporating animals, domestic objects, and narrative tropes from classical mythology and folk tales.

I cant describe why I love her art so much. I find her inspiring on a very personal and visceral level. The simplicity of the subject matter, and the use of negative space, really gets to me. She doesnt do much background. She works on silhouette and bluntness...I enjoy it a lot.

@Greyson Aron no problem =)
My sister, Carol Weaver, was a great printmaker. She died too young. She made good coffee too.
Back in school at WIU we called that Intaglio. But the size of the copper!
This is excellent, but I wish she would explain how the plate was made.
..its a copper plate etching probably drawn with some kind of etching needle...might have been bit with acid but it looks pretty clear for that ...don't know if that helps 3 years later :)
Gosto muito do trabalho da Kiki Smith. SALUTE!
I love Kiki Smith!! This is so wonderful 😄💕
Making prints is labor. Creating an idea and method is art. You need assistance to continue creation, otherwise time spent producing becomes lost time creating.Right? With scale, of course. :)
Excellent! Thank you!
Great Work !
Must be tough making your assistants pull your prints for you
um prazer dividir o processo
is the pressing machine different for relife of wood, lithography and etching method??
angle beat yes.
It is an intaglio printer from the Renaisence. This printing press came from France and is an antique. Very labour intensive.
Amazing
He is a handsome dude. You do him proud.
Very good.......
Blissful
endlessly sentimental
hi

I hope those are non-toxic inks you're using...
Hmmm, not sure I like the subject matters. The portrait was pretty crappy too. A cat??
the cat was creepy i like it. but the portrait of her friend.. :/
What's wrong with cats?
The cat was horrible but the portrait was ok
