Description
" Since 2013 Martijn van der Blom and Roy Scholten have been working wtih Lego Bricks as printmaking material in Grafisch Atelier Hilversum, They use it to build tsamps, that can be printed on the presses of the printmaking studio. That this toy material be used to design and build the most suprising images has been an endless source of fun for the last ten years. From the start, they have been sharing their enthusiasm for design, building, printing, and producing with youjng makers who visit the priuntmaking studio for art lessons or workshops. At the same time, Masrtijn and Roy have been using these techniques to make their own art. While doing so, they inspired and motivated each other to continuously elevate the expressiveness and technique of LEGO letterpress. After hundreds if not thousands of prints the time had come to compile and share the reuslts of these first ten years of printing and playing."
