4-layer screen print with 'encouraging' typography!
The scare quotes around 'encouraging' are doing something — the suggestion that encouragement might be a mode the print is gently aware of adopting, the typography in on the joke. Mini Mischief is the smaller companion to Mischief: the same graphic sensibility at a more accessible scale and price point. Neil van der Knutsen is a London-based graphic designer, illustrator, printmaker, art director and zine-maker whose practice moves freely between the commercial and the handmade — from art direction to hand-pulled screen prints to independently published zines.. His work as a graphic designer and art director feeds into his print practice — the typographic choices in pieces like this are as deliberate as the colour choices. Signed. £60.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Neil van der Knutsen
Neil van der Knutsen is a London-based graphic designer, illustrator, printmaker, art director and zine-maker whose practice moves freely between the commercial and the handmade. His screen prints bring a graphic designer’s precision to the hand-pulled process — typographic pieces that say exactly what they mean with good design sense, alongside more image-led work including a solar plate etching of Curtain Road street art and a six-colour watermelon with a glitter finish. He is a zine-maker as well as a printmaker, having published independently on subjects including Polish punk zines and graphic processes. His work is stocked at Print Club London and Atom Gallery.
