Opening January 15, 2026 at 7 PM

Hello Print Friend Studios (HPFS) is an international platform dedicated to printmaking as a site of exchange, collaboration, and shared curiosity. Through residencies, publications, interviews, documentaries, and exhibitions, HPFS works to connect artists across geographies while honoring the specificity of place, process, and community.

This exhibition marks the first presentation of Thai lithography by HPFS in Florence. The works on view reflect a diverse group of artists(from emerging to senior ) working in Thailand today, each bringing a distinct visual language shaped by personal experience, contemporary life, and long-standing traditions of mark-making. While lithography is a medium with deep historical roots, these artists approach stone as a living surface—responsive, expressive, and open to experimentation.

Together, the works move between observation and imagination, restraint and play, offering viewers an intimate encounter with line, tone, and gesture. By bringing these lithographs to Florence, HPFS invites a cross-cultural dialogue between Thai artists and one of the historic centers of drawing and printmaking, emphasizing connection, generosity, and shared artistic ground.
