I had to make this acid bath from scratch, as my plate was the biggest ever done at the Toronto School of Art. 2009.

Htein Lin guides us through the process of finger painted printing he developed as a political prisoner in Yangon's notorious Insein prison.
Using bits of glass, plastic and soap, Htein Lin's creativity was able to flourish even under the direst of circumstances; in fact he felt a responsibility to continue his art in prison as a peaceful statement to the junta that freedom of expression cannot ever really be repressed.
During the "Printmaking in the Age of Rembrandt" exhibition at the Currier Museum of Art, Manchester, NH (on view September 29, 2012- January 6, 2013) visitors were invited to carve prints throughout October. Those plates will then be inked and printed during a "Steamroller Printmaking" event on Sunday, November 4 where we'll use an actual steamroller (yes, we mean the road construction vehicle) to produce multiple large-scale prints. These prints will be displayed in the museum's Community Gallery and Art Center.
