11.29 | Socially Engaged Art Project was experiential, educational and fun. 🤓📒✂️✏️💡👏
🙋We had 30 people show up and 20 participants. Everyone had little to no experience screen printing. 🙂First everyone introduced themselves. I explained AIGA Mason (the student group for design) and how I learned how to screen print (digital printmaking course).
I started with a brief verbal explanation of the screen printing prep process and the materials needed 👇
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Materials: silkscreen, artwork, transparencies, emulsion, darkroom, power-washer, uv light table, acrylic inks, squeegee, paper, paper towels, heavy duty tape..etc
Process: picking an image - printing positive black image on film transparency - coat screen with emulsion in dark room - wait for screen to dry - expose the screen with transparency on exposure unit - wash out the emulsion and see the stencil - tape areas of screen not covered in emulsion - register the paper - add ink - flood - pull squeegee firm even motion - dry print - repeat
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Participants had many questions and were interested in learning more!
I did a demo and instructed how to screen print.
Participants engaged in making prints for 2+hours, worked together, and were happy to see the results!
I asked participants to write something about their experience. 👇

As a COS student at GMU having an opportunity yo explore and try screen printing outside of a classroom setting was great. Getting a glimpse of the screen printing process and actually getting to make my own prints was fun and an interesting learning experience. I hope I can make it to the next workshop! - Jose Duran
The experience is sublime. Screen printing with my fellow peers was fun and engaging. - Ernest Chua
An Andy Warhol party time! 😻 - Megan Snyder
Emily’s explanation and demonstration of screen printing really helped me understand the process. I have never screen printed before so it was nice to try something new. 10/10 would do again! - Daniel Sipes
As an AVT guy i’ve never done screen printing so this was fun and enlightening. Emily was flawless at demonstrating and instructing! Thank you! - Corey B.

✏️I am happy to make design accessible to everyone by offering a free creative social activity and hands-on educational program. People were interested in learning and inquired about our student group for design, AIGA Mason.

The term “social practice” obscures the discipline from which socially engaged art has emerged (i.e., art). In this way it denotes the critical detachment from other forms of art-making (primarily centered and built on the personality of the artist) that is inherent to socially engaged art, which, almost by definition, is dependent of the involvement of others besides the instigator of the artwork. It also thus raises the question of whether such activity belongs to the field of art at all. This is an important query; art students attracted to this form of art-making often find themselves wondering whether it would be more useful to abandon art altogether and instead become professional community organizers, activists, politicians, ethnographers, or sociologists. Indeed, in addition to sitting uncomfortably between and across these disciplines and downplaying the role of the individual artist, socially engaged art is specifically at odds with the capitalist market infrastructure of the art world: it does not fit well in the traditional collecting practices of contemporary art, and the prevailing cult of the individual artist is problematic for those whose goal is to work with others, generally in collaborative projects with democratic ideals. Many artists look for ways to renounce not only object-making but authorship altogether, in the kind of “stealth” art practice that philosopher Stephen Wright argues for, in which the artist is a secret agent in the real world, with an artistic agenda.
