welcome to the max.ink/projectshop

We believe design has the power to suspend time, to inspire a second glance, a lingering thought, a nod, a smile, a deep breath. We celebrate the fundamental human acts of creating, feeling, giving, sharing, and making. For these we are almost always hungry.

Established in 2002, max.ink is happy to celebrate 12 months in its new home in SAW (Studio for Arts and Works) in Carbondale, Colorado's newest Creative District.

A creative space full of the tools, materials and expertise to enhance creative work, inspire collaborations and to maximize enjoyment.

⤹CLASSES and COMMUNITY EVENTS

Correspondence artist communications only via post
R2 Gallery Launchpad, Carbondale Arts

Exhibition opening June 2nd 6-8pm.
showing June 2 through 30, 2017

Six initiating artists have each corresponded with a fellow artist since October of 2016. These correspondences were sent and received via the postal system in the tradition of Mail Art. For many of the artists this was the only means of communication between them, forcing an exploration of the intimacy of conversation through the physical exchange of letters/art works. By using the postal system they have invited an unknown variable that has left markings, possible delays or losses, and included the postal workers as audience members. In this day and age of fast-paced digital communication these artists did their best to honor the tradition of Mail Art. More Info

Reina Katzenberger and K Rhynus Cesark

printed matter, mixed media on porcelain, encaustic wax with transfers as well as video projection of animation on porcelain.

A common thread we see in our work are the elements that feel familiar, such as the archetype of the home and points and lines which define objects in space. Our collaboration strives to strip away the assumptions of what one perceives. Our work presents the opportunity to forget what we think we see. More Info

Aspen Chapel Gallery showing new art work
77 Meadowood Dr, Aspen, CO 81611

by Reina Katzenberger

Mixed Media prints on Arches mounted on cradled Birch Board.

In this new series of work I have explored incorporating traditional print techniques including monotype, screen printing and letterpress into painting and mixed media applications on paper. This work deals with concepts in which I find solace and direction. Exploring the relationship of art and science has always been a steadfast starting point.
