LENvention is an annual workshop for letterpress practitioners and was established by Angie Butler and Hazel Grainger in 2013. This year Philippa and the other LENventioners* returned to UWE in Bristol where they were fortunate to work with Dr Tim Mosely from Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia who had been invited by Angie to join and run this year’s event.
Tim’s research practice includes haptic aesthetics in relation to the artists’ book. His research methodology, which we were introduced to, was a new way of working for the majority of the group and responding to the theme of Empathy we worked collaboratively to develop and produce a range of work that resulted in a rather impressive 19 finished artists’ books within a two day period.
