Film by Kings&Kongs

“The project was born from the desire to print their poster designs with their own hands: the two graduates of the Berlin University of the Arts collected the rare equipment together and simply set up their own printing studio. They started printing first for themselves, then for friends, and then later for friends of friends. From the start they have always said: no ink with solvents, don’t be afraid of complicated projects and no t-shirts please. They began using this printing technique in the screenprinting workshop of the University of Arts in Berlin, where the two first met in 2005 and discovered their shared passion for color, paper and large-format prints. Screenprinting has all but disappeared from the graphic printing landscape due to the laborious process involved. The studio is now best known for its use of unusual, sometimes even self-developed inks and rare papers.”
