New name, new website

When we set up SLAUGHTERHAUS Print Studio in 2010, we named it after the building. Redesigning our website in 2024 was also the perfect time to launch our new name, HAUSPRINT.

Collecting the Looking

“I love drawing really quickly. I love drawing in really difficult situations. I love drawing in the dark. I like what happens when you can’t see everything or when it’s passed and you have to remember it rather than drawing what it actually looks like, so it’s about the experience of looking as much as what I’m looking at.”

We talk to Michelle Avison about building a resilient artistic practice over 30 years.

Brushworks 2

This is one of two prints (Brushstrokes 1 and 2) which differ only in the colour range.  As the title suggests I was interested in the way brushstrokes have their own emotional and expressive language; in this print influenced by the different colours and printmaking techniques.

Southbank

I have drawn the Southbank with my needle on acrylic plates for as long as I can remember. I draw to feel alive…..
The drypoint process provides  immediacy, of capturing a feeling- the buildings as geometries, the brooding skyline, dotted figures with long shadows. Printing the scratched lines for me, re-evokes and transforms the experience of my interior urban landscape.
