Description
Klein’s ‘Maggie in Autumn’, 2023 screenprinted editions were produced at Atelier JI from film positives hand-painted by the artists. The project saw Klein continuing to experiment and expand upon her rich printmaking career, embracing the medium not only as a form of reproduction, but as a creative language that exists in conversation with her painting practice. In addition to the primary edition, Klien also produced 10 unique hand-finished monoprints.
