    Hand Papermaking and Paper Art – Traditional and contemporary practices at the 20th IAPMA Congress, Tasmania, Australia
    By Tunde Toth

    This illustrated talk offers an insight into Tunde Toth’s experiences at the 20th IAPMA (International Association of Hand Papermakers and Paper Artists) Congress in Tasmania in 2009 where she had been invited to participate and give workshops on the experimental techniques she uses in silk fibre papermaking. Her three piece installation work Land Script – Copper Coast was selected for the New Paper – Old Land International Paper Art Exhibition at the same time. The talk follows her journey through the locations and events of the Congress – professional papermaking studios, galleries, artist’s presentations, specialised paper art workshops and wilderness tours – in a country of extraordinary landscapes and wildlife. The IAPMA Congress provided a unique opportunity to exchange ideas and experiences with over 130 international delegates and establish connections between networks and artists’ groups.

    Tunde Toth is a Hungarian born artist specializing in experimental paper and fibre art, practicing in Ireland since 1998. As a paper artist and papermaker Tunde has been working with natural plant fibres, various handmade papers, raw silk fibres, textiles, found objects, old fabrics and lace for the past 13 years. She uses techniques and processes which are rooted in papermaking traditions but she continually develops and changes these processes through an experimental approach to the medium, exploring and pushing the boundaries of hand papermaking. Her artwork has been selected for a number of group and solo exhibitions at art centres and galleries in Ireland and internationally – most recently shown at Land – Scripts, her solo exhibition and residency at Kilkenny County Arts Office. In 2009 she was awarded the Artlinks Bursary Award.
