The Art of Mono Printing with Suminagashi

Jose Den Hartog & Nicole Mollett

Saturday June 8th 11-4pm | Sunday June 9th 2-4pm

Artists Nicole and José delivered a fun and easy workshop to a create a monoprint using a marbling technique called suminagashi (floating ink). 

The art of paper marbling originated in China about 2,000 years ago. Originally, it was a secret technique. It became popular in the 12th century in Japan, where it was called suminagashi and in the 16th century, the technique spread to India and Persia, where it was called kaghaz-i abri (“sunless paper”).  In suminagashi, you create a pattern with sumi ink and water, this pattern can be distorted in various ways, but the character of the water always remains visible. 

These workshops were part of Medway Print Festival & the Chatham Pumping Station Project.

Bringing in the Mayhem

Hand painted ceramic tiles and digital sound art installation, 2024

Nicole Mollett & Jane Pitt

Centred on themes of nature and the changing of the season, artists Jane Pitt and Nicole Mollett have created a site-specific audio visual art installation inside the Gardens at Eastgate House. This collaborative public artwork, Bringing in the Mayhem takes inspiration from a plethora of sources including local birdsong, and the rare 16th century wall paintings found inside the Tudor House.  The artwork embodies the mayhem and revelry of the May Day customs which are celebrated as part of Sweeps Festival Rochester 2024. Hand painted ceramic tiles reveal an ornate pattern of greenery entwined spirals and ribbons around which strange beings dance and frolic about. The audio track is accessible via the QR code embedded within the artwork. It contains a wild mix of sounds made by humans and non-humans all recorded around the towns and countryside of Medway.

We’re grateful to the following groups of human participants for their vocal contribution: Electric Medway Young Hack; The Mess Room: both Kent Association for the Blind & Peer Arts Groups; Digital Teen Art at The Lightbox, and Nucleus Rochester.

Funded by Arts Council England.

The works existence in the public realm has been granted an extension thanks to the staff at Eastgate House. To visit please check museum opening hours (normally Sat & Sunday, 10-5pm).

As part of my DYCP project (Developing Your Creative Practice- ACE funded 1 year grant) I have been exploring ways to place my drawings in the public realm. Working with Dutch artist Jose Den Hartog I have learnt about painting with glazes on ceramic tiles. I am using these new skills to create a small tile mural which I will temporarily install in a public space in Kent.
