The STATE OF PRINT can be manifest in response to any space at any time as both a sculptural form and as a platform for activity – in the form of image production, poetry, debate, performance, music and film.STATE OF PRINT (Funded)10,000 Euros, Culture Ireland (GB18)https://www.cultureireland.ie/gb18/event/state-of-prin
