Michel Tuffrey and his printmaking lab
Michel is stoked to be part of the National Library's 2019 Pasifika Spectacular Community Day, with a couple of great opportunities to check out his work.
At his Open Printmaking Lab, he’ll show his carving and printmaking processes featuring his Enviro, Maori and Pasifika Letter woodcuts. You’ll also be able to have a go as well!
At his Charity Print Sale you can buy your favourite woodcut letters with 30% from art sold on the day going towards the Pacific Health Plus’ Youth Development Strategy (supported with significant mentoring from John and his sister Molly Fiso).
And if your letter isn’t there, Michel will specially print and personalise it for you. Print prices start from $140 - $250 unframed. Cash and Eft/pos available.
