Ta’lo fan (Do it again): Printmaking Workshop with Roldy Aguero Ablao

Maila (come) and gather with Tidelands this July to explore the art of printmaking on textiles, fabric and even your own clothing. In this session, you will work with Roldy Aguero Ablao, a queer Chamorro artist who uses printmaking to adorn the body with symbols and motifs inspired by the land, sea, and their ancestry.

Clothing is a way to remember and celebrate who we are and where we come from, allowing us to share what is important to us with others. In this gathering, people are encouraged to bring their own clothing from home and will be guided to use the artists screenprints and stencils to print their own wearable stories.

Folks will also have an opportunity to create their own stencils inspired by their lands, seas and ancestries, to use and print on their clothing in the workshop. Colors used for this day will be black and gold, inspired by the midnight sky and morning golden sun.

Maila! (Come!)
