Event Details

“Burra,” the Gadigal word for eel, is the focus of artist Lisa Jackson Pulver’s latest body of work. This story of the burra is told through the medium of a delicately crafted artist book.

In early 2024, five copper plates were meticulously created and treated using various techniques, including blind embossing, relief rolling, and embossing or printing onto chine collé. The paper choices for these prints include white Hosho and black Mingeishi, carefully selected to enhance the textures and depth of the story.  Lisa Jackson Pulver will present an overview of the artist book’s narrative and share insights into its production process at Baldessin Studio in Melbourne.

Location: Baldessin Press, Booth B08
