Abstract

Ten Trips Around the Sun celebrates a kaleidoscope of work produced by Naarm-based Helio Press, specialising in illustrative risograph printing and DIY publishing. Helio is owned and operated by Melbourne artist Ashley Ronning, who has dedicated her practice to showcasing/capturing the fluid and abstract stories and experiences of authors and illustrators via the process of committing ink to paper.

Like a constellation assembled over time, the exhibition brings together pieces printed for hundreds of artists, each one a point of light marking a moment in Helio’s journey through the creative cosmos. Alongside a vast array of art prints, zines, and other printed ephemera, visitors can explore proofs, test sheets, notes, and studio fragments reconstituted in the gallery space.

About Helio Press
Helio Press is the risograph print project of illustrator and zine lifer Ashley Ronning. Specialising in illustrative risograph printing and DIY publishing, Helio is dedicated to the art of imbuing paper with the stories and experiences of authors and illustrators. Located in Melbourne’s inner north – three planets from the sun – it’s the home of free range, physical art; hand-stapled by the owner of an expansive collection of inky denim.
