Merz Wahlwoche

Wahlwoche Projectweek at Merz Akademie, Hochschule für Gestaltung, Kunst und Medien, Stuttgart, April 25-29, 2022.

Initiated by: Joost Bottema. Special Thanks to: Joachim Herter (Werkstattleitung Siebdruck) & Marcus Haffner (Werkstattleitung Printlab). Financial Support: Erasmus+.


Six students working with solvent based Made in Germany Marabu inks that allow for printing on relatively light types of paper.


Amazing colour sophistication for al purposes…


The theme of the workshop was ‘Flags & Heraldics’, but we took that very very very loosely. For example, you might say the koy are like ‘flying flags’ in the water…


Printing on transparent tracing paper, normally impossible using the regular water-based inks.


Officially retired, but nevertheless working almost every week, Joachim Herter (72) is still going strong!


Super shiny Marabu metallics…

Participating Students: Josephine Bartl, Hannah Gendig, Isabel Carolin Kohlhagen, Ceyda Meral, Fabian Stahl & Eunjae Kim.
