Discover an innovative printing technique in this artist-led workshop with Debbie Taylor Worley. Gel printing (or gelli printing) is a form of mono-printing that uses gelatin printing plates to create interesting textures and layers of colour. Taylor Worley will guide participants through an exploration of this medium using hand cut stencils. This workshop is suitable for beginners and those with printing experience wanting to explore new techniques.

Debbie Taylor Worley was a finalist in The Churchie Emerging Art Prize 2023 at the IMA. Debbie’s practice is everchanging and multidisciplinary, working mainly with clay and textiles. A “hands-on” artist, she relishes in the making and manufacturing process. The common themes present throughout her work include female empowerment, the symbols used in “women’s business” rituals, both within the Gamilaraay nation and European nations associated with her bi-cultural heritage, and retelling colonial history. Referencing natural and foraged materials that are connected to Country and working within the landscape and directly on the ground, Taylor Worley’s work draws on ancestral and intuitive guidance, creating work that bridges cultural divides.
