MANOLO TAURE, PRINTMAKER

Friend Manolo has been printing, each week since March, numbered editions of what he is calling The Toilet Paper Story – LINO CUTS, and yes, he is printing on toilet paper, of course.  When he first heard that people were hoarding toilet paper at the start of the pandemic, he started his editions.  And now he has sent me news that Austria is printing postage stamps on toilet paper!  (Artists are so often ahead of the curve.)  Stamp collectors may want to collect versions of both sorts.  The artist can be reached by email, here: printandbake AT gmail DOT com. The prints below, some of my favorites, are floated on card stock and sleeved in plastic, (which I removed to take photos).
