Obee Editions offers a collaborative artist residency focused on the creation of original fine art printmaking projects. Artists work one-on-one with Tamarind Master Printer Perry Obee to develop new work through traditional and contemporary printmaking techniques. This is a collaborative residency, not a class, workshop, or private studio rental. Perry handles the technical aspects of printing while the artist leads all aesthetic and conceptual decisions and actively generates plates, stones, or other matrices under guidance and supervision.
Through sustained dialogue and shared decision making, projects evolve organically and often arrive at unexpected outcomes. Residents can expect a focused, immersive studio experience emphasizing experimentation, translation, and collaboration through processes including lithography, monotype, relief, chine collé, digital processes, artist books, and hybrid approaches. Artists working in any medium are encouraged to apply. Prior printmaking experience is welcome but not required.
