episode ninety-five | des mcmahon

In this episode Miranda talks with Des McMahon of The Limerick Printmakers, a collective group of working class printmakers in Limerick, Ireland. We'll talk about how he came to printmaking through punk aesthetics and german expressionism, the City of Limerick, and how its (lack?) of printmaking history gave it its own character, printmakers as builders, and the twenty-four-hour print.
