Pirrip Press are Alex Higlett and Georgina Hounsome. They are a two-woman illustration, design and print duo, specialising in Silkscreen printing.
Alex and Georgina design and make their own products (greetings cards, books, artwork, and other printed ephemera) in Bristol, working at their home studio and printing at Spike Print Studio. They screenprint as ethically as they can using recycled card and paper, Earth Positive clothing blanks and water based inks, along with re-using leftovers, using biodegradable packaging where possible and being naturally opposed to waste!
They like to tell stories, and know that things have more authenticity if there’s research and thought behind them so there’s invariably a narrative woven into what they produce. And they love to be outdoors, so the natural world is their biggest source of inspiration.
