Hello, Print Friend A podcast about contemporary printmaking.

05/15/2026

Applications are now open for our 2027 residencies at Hello, Print Friend Studios in Chiang Mai.

We are now scheduling artists from February through June 2027.

This residency is dedicated to traditional lithography, offering artists the time, space, and support to fully engage with the process. Lithography is a deeply collaborative printmaking practice, historically used by artists such as Pablo Picasso, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, KΓ€the Kollwitz, and David Hockneyβ€”and continues to be a vital medium for contemporary artists today.

Whether your goal is to learn lithography from the ground up, deepen your existing practice, or leave with a finished edition ready for your collectors, this is a space to do it with full support.

Your residency fee includes housing in a modern studio apartment directly behind the print studio. Each apartment has a private bathroom, balcony, desk, wardrobe, and small fridge, so you can settle in and focus on your work. Partners and children are welcome.

You will also get access to the studio and all materials, along with 35 hours per week working one on one with our master printer and assistant.

If you’ve been waiting for the right time to commit to your practice, this is it.

Apply now through the link in bio or send us a message with any questions.

Applications close 15 June 2026.

This week Miranda coming to you from El Barrio Artsspace in New York City, where we recently screened Impresiones de Resistencia: Printmaking in Puerto Rico at the Rafael TufiΓ±o Printmaking Workshop

This conversation was recorded on-site, and Miranda was joined by artist Oliver Rios a printmaker and filmmaker who documents the stories of the Puerto Rican diaspora in the city. He helped guide this interview, so a big thank you to Oliver for being part of this moment.

Our guest is Nitza TufiΓ±o an artist, educator, and one of the key figures behind the workshop itself. As the daughter of legendary printmaker Rafael TufiΓ±o, her life and work are deeply rooted in the history of Puerto Rican printmaking and the cultural movement of El Barrio.

In this conversation, Nitza shares what it means to build and sustain a collective space for artists: one grounded in community, education, and cultural memory. We talk about the role of printmaking as a tool for connection and resistance, the importance of creating spaces where people can see themselves reflected, and the responsibility artists have to carry history forward.

This episode is about more than printmaking. It’s about community, resilience, and the power of art to bring people together.

Patrick Wagner of Black Heart Press with his 1904 Maschinenfabrik Johannisberg Schnellpresse: a 7.5 ton printing press that continues to shape the way artists think about print today.

Patrick shares what it means to build a life around a machine like this. From the physical reality of working on a press of this scale to the reason artists travel from around the world to print on it.

Patrick has this unbelievable Geischeim Maschinenfabrik press from 1904 tucked into a barn in the Swedish countryside. This week has been all about time with the machine, long days printing, sauna, cold lake dips, black liquorice, and that very specific kind of gratitude that comes from building a life around making.

This week Miranda speaks with Shivangi Ladha and Asha Vaidyanath to talk about Moments of Being, an upcoming exhibition presented by India Printmaker House at the London Original Print Fair

Together, they share the story behind this year-long curatorial process, one rooted in studio visits, artist-to-artist dialogue, and a deep commitment to supporting emerging voices in contemporary printmaking. We talk about what it means to curate as artists rather than gatekeepers, how intuition and vulnerability shaped the exhibition, and why they chose to move beyond identity as the primary framework for bringing artists together.

This conversation offers a thoughtful look at collaboration, materiality, and the evolving role of printmaking in a global context. It is also a reminder that some of the most compelling exhibitions don’t start with a fixed idea, but with curiosity, trust, and a willingness to listen.

Transporting a 51.5 x 37 inch woodblock by from across Brooklyn… by subway.

Will they make it?
Will they cave and call an Uber?
Will they discover the true meaning of friendship?
Will the internet have the attention span to make it to the end and the reveal of the carving?
