Unique State: A contemporary approach to printmedia


Lane Cove Gallery
23 July – 9 August 2025

Unique State celebrates the freedom and innovation of contemporary printmaking. Moving beyond traditional editioning, Sydney Printmakers present singular uneditioned prints created as one-of-a-kind artworks through experimental techniques that resist replication. This exhibition highlights the dynamic possibilities of printmedia today, where process, spontaneity, and individuality are at the heart of each unique piece.
