Background and context
Artist residencies provide concentrated time and space for artists to produce new work, engage with local cultures, and develop ideas that often become the basis for exhibitions. In this case, the residency at Brashnar AiR in Skopje, North Macedonia took place earlier in the summer and led to a series of printmaking pieces. Printmaking is a studio practice that includes techniques such as relief printing, intaglio, lithography, and screenprinting; it is often used to produce multiple impressions from a single prepared surface, allowing artists to explore variations on themes and processes.
The exhibition title, “Frontier: Western Desert, Nostalgia, and Macedonia,” suggests a combination of landscape, memory, and place-based exploration. Visitors attending the artist talk can expect an overview of Smith’s residency activities, insights into how site and culture informed the printmaking work, and a chance to see the new pieces in person after the talk concludes.
