Jules Sharpe [2023, Illustration]

I’m an illustrator and printmaker based in Providence, RI. My practice primarily involves making prints, zines, artist books, and posters. I print all of my work on a Risograph, a stencil duplicator machine similar to silkscreen printing. I’m a member of Binch press, a co-operative print studio in Olneyville with a focus on self publishing. My work explores themes of queer joy and futurism, and also documents my life in Providence: exploring the music scene and thinking about my role in a city that is constantly changing. I also produce posters for a DIY space called Lost Bag and am publishing a collaborative newspaper featuring local artists in the Olneyville area.
