Steamroller Printing

We Are Doing It With A Steamroller!

Giant Prints Powered by Topo Copy and the MIAT  – Museum of Industrial Archaeology and Textiles Ghent.

Twenty artists made giant prints, not on a press but on concrete with a steamroller, a type of heavy construction machinery used for flattening/compacting surfaces, such as roads or airfields … All artists prepared and carved a huge design in lino, ready to roll! During a two-day-event in july 2012 the carvings got inked and printed on ‘flags’ and paper with the aid of a steamroller.
