George Hajian: ACTU8

George Hajian welcomes you to his third screenprinting exhibition Actu8.

Using pages taken from vintage maps and books as such as a late 19th century edition of Homer’s The Odyssey, George Hajian’s latest screenprinting exhibition – Actu8 – explores the significance of journeys, making connections and actuating change.

In this exhibition, Hajian’s third at Thistle Hall (d:construct 2008 and e-motion 2009), various collage elements sit alongside his established screenprinting style to create his one-off wooden panels and limited edition prints.

There is hidden symbolism and direct quotes in each work,” says Hajian whose method of creating involves free-form writing, “laying bare feelings and thoughts” and pulling out the themes from these to translate into screenprints and illustrations.
