Environment in Flux | CBAA Midwest Print Exchange Exhibition

Rarely does the world experience simultaneous and ubiquitous change, uncertainty, closure, limitations, isolation, and social distancing. As printmakers who rely heavily on shared making spaces and historically large printmaking equipment, the past year presented new hurdles for an inaugural regional College Book Art Association print-exchange. With locked studios at institutions and workshops, halted global supply chains, and a return to home printing, the works presented here are a true testament to the human need to make and share. It is our sincere hope you enjoy the work as much as we have, and can find connection to the Midwestern printmakers that have so thoughtfully given us a visual lift during this pandemic.
