Impact-13

Impact 13 – Ink’s transcendence: A tale beyond boundaries will be the first IMPACT (International Multi-disciplinary Printmaking, Artists, Concepts and Techniques) conference to be held in the Americas. This event will feature a series of lectures, exhibitions, and cultural exchanges aimed at exploring, on one hand, the contemporary scene of printmaking and, on the other hand, your unique and multicultural identity in an ecological and postcolonial context.

This project will generally contribute to the mobilization and accessibility of research on the plurivocality of printmaking. It will highlight the experimental and interdisciplinary nature inherent in printmaking practices while questioning technical, technological, and ontological boundaries. Indeed, exchanges and collaborations between researchers will play a crucial role in exploring the boundaries of printmaking, whether traditional or digital, material or virtual. These borders, both visible and invisible, will also be approached from the perspective of their transformative and reinvention potential. Printmaking, as a discipline, has undergone several metamorphoses and remains in perpetual renewal, crossing the limits of its own field to question the spaces in which it comes to life and expresses itself.
