Timo Willen

throughout my studies i learned about traditional printing techniques, such as dry point, woodcuts, screen printing and typography. 

​

besides experimenting with these techniques i especially started cutting wood in 2013, inspired by german artists of the beginning 20th century.

i learned about the origins both of the german original woodcut, which i admire about its expressivity and roughness, as well as japanese original woodcut, who inspires me by its simplicity in showing nature. i try to combine rough cuts and organic motives and like to create an unique print in every single one of an edition.
