Artlab members talk about the work on display at the opening of 'Ink-Coherent' - 21 Apr - 26 June 2010 - Harris Museum & Art Gallery, Preston

Ink-Coherent is an exhibition of works which are a response by artists of Artlab Contemporary Print Studios to The Harris Museum and Art Gallery. Each of the works on show relates to either something held in the collections or is a direct response to the environment of the Harris Museum and Art Gallery itself.

ArtLab Contemporary Print Studio is a group of artists from across the North West who use the printmaking facilities at The University of Central Lancashire to develop their knowledge and skills in printmaking.

The member artists are from a range of backgrounds and disciplines, for some of them printmaking is the core of their artistic development and for others the print studio enhances their practice in different disciplines. Artlab Contemporary Print Studios creates an environment where members can engage in debate and investigation into contemporary research and strategies.
