Fanny Kopp
Wood engraver
Aïre

« Woodcut or woodcut is an ancient printing process. »

During a screen printing course given by Christian Humbert-Droz, Fanny Kopp discovered a passion for ink and printing. From 2015, she trained in different engraving techniques – etching, intaglio, lino, wood – in France and Belgium. Back in Geneva in 2017, she continued to develop her know-how and pass it on to young people and adults.

Using different tools, Fanny Kopp carves the wood which gradually transforms into a print that will be inked before being put under the press to print her emotions on paper or fabric. For her creations, she is mainly inspired by nature and wildlife. She also campaigns for their preservation by transmitting strong messages through certain works.
