“Sequence showcases artists who use printmaking methods as their primary mode of expression, both as a visual tool and as a vehicle for ideas. The artists’ common affinity for this particular mode of making presents an insightful lens for surveying contemporary fine art while animating historic techniques with clarity, innovation, and personal vision. The exhibition asks, ‘How are Ohio-based artists using printmaking to produce surprising and compelling visual artworks?’”
