Learn to screen print an image of your own creation onto t-shirts and other textiles in this two-part workshop taught by contemporary artist  Kristen Schiele. In the first workshop session, participants will combine image and text using collage and mixed media techniques with the goal of creating a powerful statement piece inspired by the socially-engaged artwork in the exhibition Martha Rosler: Irrespective. During the second workshop session, each participant’s artwork will be transferred onto a screen for printing in multiples using ink on fabric.

Kristen Schiele creates bold, immersive and semi-abstract paintings, collages and installations. She holds a BA in Visual Arts from Indiana University and an MFA from the American University in Washington DC. Her works on paper and silk screen graphic novel are in the collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Museum of Modern Art, and she has exhibited at the Torrance Art Museum, the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Printed Matter Book Fair at MoMA PS1, and the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA. Schiele has held residencies at the Provincetown Work Center, The Bronx Museum of the Arts, the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, and the Lower East Side Printshop, among others. Her work has been reviewed in The New York Times, Berliner Morgenpost, The Brooklyn Rail, and Modern Painters. She lives and works in Brooklyn.
