Vincent Handford is a graphic designer, screen printing obsessee, and the face behind Memori Prints. Under this pseudonym Vincent produces his own range of limited edition screen prints, utilising his background in design to combine striking colours, patterns and images. He also produces one-off commissions and screen prints of artwork for other artists and designers.
A graduate in Graphic Design from Plymouth College of Art, for the past 5 years, Vincent has worked in an art working/graphic design role for a vinyl record and CD producer. Vincent first discovered screen printing and felt inspired to learn more about the technique after seeing screen printed posters at gigs and festivals. He is currently in the process of making the change to self employment, with screen printing becoming his full-time job.
Memori Prints is all about treasuring memories. In our modern world where many of our memories are digital and saved as jpegs, social media posts, or video files, Vincent creates limited physical prints utilising photography, bright colours, and collage. His process usually begins with sketching out an idea and then building the layers up on his Mac. Sometimes, he photographs something that he finds eye-catching and will then build the design around it. Alternatively, Vincent also utilises old family photos or photos of people he knows. Using the medium of collage he combines images, patterns, and shapes to create something new and unexpected.
Vincent is looking forward to refining and experimenting with his screen printing practice, with the hope of creating some posters for gigs and festivals in the future.
