About Caudal Gráfico

Caudal Gráfico is an artists’ collective that emerged in the Chilean uprising of 2019, building a critical and containment space from the craft of printmaking in a context of change. Five years after its creation, the collective has developed projects that seek new ways of practicing printmaking. Experimenting with methods of collective creation, each work challenges authorship with prints that intertwine in shared processes. Playing with formats and materialities has allowed us to displace the craft, with works that have been installed in different urban interventions. These works have been installed in various urban interventions. These works are not part of the logic of a productive model that reduces the time of creation to immediacy, opting for constant learning and the necessary care that the craft requires. As a collective we have also diversified into other creative fields such as mural painting, workshops and illustration, always maintaining the collaborative spirit.
