“Not a Fingerprint, but a _________ print” by SK Printmakers for Nuit Blanche Saskatoon

About

Blueprints are important in the construction of any structure whether it’s a bridge, home, or public space. Without a plan, building materials can go to waste, key details may go unnoticed, and the original intention of the construction can become distorted or incomplete. Blueprints are the measured, visual representation of the hopes and goals of everyone involved in the construction of a project.

For this printmaking event, SK Printmakers will use the idea of blueprints representing planning, growth, and visualizing goals to create images that will be exposed onto silkscreens. Throughout the evening, Nuit Blanche participants will work with SKP members to screenprint these images onto 10” x 10” sheets of recycled blueprint paper.

Nuit Blanche participants will be able to take their printed blueprints with them.

Organizer

Nuit Blanche Saskatoon

Nuit Blanche Saskatoon takes place this year on Saturday, September 28th from 7pm-12am throughout Downtown, Broadway and Riverlanding. Nuit Blanche Eve takes place on the University of Saskatchewan campus on Friday, September 27th, from 6pm-9pm.

The Nuit Blanche festival is an art movement that is celebrated in cities across the globe, and arrived in Saskatoon in 2014, when the first Nuit Blanche Saskatoon was held in the Riversdale neighbourhood. Since then, NBYXE has expanded to become a city-wide festival celebrating our city’s vibrant arts scene every year in September.

NBYXE is a free night-time contemporary arts festival featuring projections, sculptural installations, performance, music, theatre, and other contemporary art forms that wow festival-goers late into the evening.
