In this rich and intimate conversation, we sit down with lithographer Marc Gijzen, whose invisible hand has shaped many beautiful photography and art books in the Netherlands and worldwide.

From the smell of ink to the subtle art of collaboration, Marc shares:

• How exposure to visual culture in his childhood opened the way for his lifetime profession;

• He explains how essential teamwork is in bookmaking;

• And shares the story of printing full-color on black paper - a dream project come true.

Whether you're a designer, photographer, or book lover, this episode offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at what makes printed images sing.
