I would like to strengthen our printmaking program with a press. We have used pasta makers as a printing press in the past but are limited to a much smaller printing plate. This is a piece of equipment you would find in a better neighborhood than ours, and I thought I should try to give my students the opportunity to use a better piece of equipment.
This press will help students use more advanced equipment as they express themselves. One of my favorite printmaking assignments is to create a symbol of themselves that they can turn into a printing plate. We have been limited by size to our pasta maker or by just rubbing the plate together, with somewhat success.
I have spent the last decade dispelling the notion of failure and wrong in my classroom. I have had students that are so afraid of failing that they won’t begin anything. This equipment will turn somewhat successful into successful by illuminating sub-par equipment. My goal is to channel that confidence outside my classroom into the rest of the school and their life.
