CREATIVE PRINTMAKING CONFERENCE 2025:
CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: POSTERS
TIBA’A: Creative Printmaking Conference
Theme: OASIS
Welcome to the first Creative Printmaking Conference in Kuwait, returning for our second year, where we will dive into the world of printmaking as an avenue for experiential and experimental artistic expression. Our focus is on the celebration of the revelation, imagination, retreat, landscape extension, engagement, impression(s), culture convergence, prints & cultures, rhythmic clutter. This year’s theme is OASIS. We are intentionally leaving it broad, allowing you the freedom to envision and explore concepts both within and beyond the context of printmaking. Be inspired by our keynote speakers, artists, designers and visionaries who will share their journey in the world of printmaking, providing fresh perspectives and insights.
Join us for an inspiring journey, where you’ll gain insights, make connections, and explore the constructive and transformative power of printmaking and creative visual communication. Together, we’ll embark on a path of personal growth and celebrate the infinite possibilities of creative expression.
