Henry’s work has been shown nationally and they have been an artist in residence with Zygote Press in Cleveland, OH, Sparkbox Studio in Picton, Ontario, and (very soon) The Wassaic Project in Wassaic, NY. Lithography is a popular printmaking process with a rich and storied history. Unfortunately, it has usually been known to require access to cumbersome materials and equipment.
