Stitching *Floating Like Sunlight: Words of Passage, Ritual, Oracle, Living, Dying*, a collaboration between Sarah Riggs and Anne Waldman. The intensely pigmented yellow covers—made with Shin Inbe from Awagami Factory—help convey much-needed light into the atelier.

LAST SPOT available for our Letterpress Workshop offered during the NOW26 conference. 31 May from 11a-5p. €140

In this 6-hour workshop, participants will be introduced to a special collection of primarily French fonts designed by Roger Excoffon and released by Fonderie Olive, as well as other classics from Deberny & Peignot. Each sets a phrase or two in job sticks & galleys and prints one-color from a collective forme. The layouts may include pi fonts, vintage clichés and decorative rule. Each person will distribute their type and spacing material back into the cases, when the print runs are finished. At the end, we will trim, sign and number the [variable] editions, while assessing our font choices and compositional strategies.

All materials provided!







We organise workshops around typography topics such as type design lettering, calligraphy, usage of Glyphs. Register to Workshop Nº 25 Letterpress at Salt & Cedar
