Printmaking
Sarah Evenson is a transgender printmaker, illustrator, book artist, and zinemaker whose colorful work explores queerness as a natural human state worthy of exploration, documentation, & celebration. Sarah holds a BFA in printmaking from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and was a 2019–2021 fellow at the Minnesota Center for Book Arts, as well as a resident in the 2021 Emerging Artist Residency at Highpoint Center for Printmaking. Their artist books and zines are held in collections across the English-speaking world and beyond.
During their time as a resident at Anderson Center, Sarah worked on a series of interrelated screen-printed images, zines, animations, and installations that record their transition through gender-affirming care and rejoice in the new relationship between their body and sense of self this care has made possible. Sarah offered a drop-in heat foiled cut-and-fold-zine workshop at the Minnesota Children’s Book Festival. Sarah screened animations of their screenprinting work and offered an artist talk in the Tower View Barn.
