Events, Talks
Visiting artist and instructor Tomas Colbengtson speaks about his work and personal innovations to the form on screen printing onto glass. 
 
Tomas is Sami, the nomadic reindeer-people who live in the northern parts of Scandinavia. In his work, he often refers to sami culture, asking questions about the cultural identity and existence.
 Tomas’s art is based from the sami culture and the Nordic Scandinavian landscape. 
He is always experimenting with combinations of media and material and has developed a new way to print screen prints in overlay glass. He often works with screen-printed imagery on metal, (aluminum, brass, silver) as well as etching and digital art techniques. He has been the resident artist at KTH Royal school of technology, where he has been working with visualization of art and serves as a Lecturer in Fine Printmaking at Konstfack National College of Art, Craft and Design in Stockholm
