Serio Press is a Los Angeles print studio built on ink, daylight and democratic ideals. Opened in 2012 by master printer Jorge López, the shop occupies a former textile mill near the L.A. River, where thirty foot skylights flood custom built work tables with even, north facing light. Specialising in water based screen printing, the team collaborates with artists, museums and social justice organisations to translate paintings, digital collages and photographs into limited edition prints that retain the hand of the original while gaining the tactile snap of pulled ink.

The process begins with high-resolution scanning or direct photography on site. Separations are then output on waterproof film, handcut or digitally printed, and stretched onto aluminium frames tensioned to 25 newtons tight enough to hold fine halftone dots yet flexible for large solids. Using only water-based pigments, printers lay down translucent glazes, metallic overlays or split fountain rainbows, building colour fields that can exceed twenty layers without muddying. Paper stocks range from Somerset velvet to recycled kraft, each chosen to complement the image surface and the artist’s intent.

Beyond edition work, Serio Press runs community workshops, teaching local high school students how to burn screens, mix pigments and edition their own posters. Recent projects include a 5,000 run voter registration broadside for Rock the Vote, a suite of ocean coloured prints with painter Hayley Barker and a monumental twelve color portrait of labor leader Dolores Huerta for the Smithsonian.

Every print leaves the shop stamped with the Serio chop two coyotes circling a saguaro symbolising collaboration, resilience and the belief that art, like ink, should travel far beyond the studio wall.

El Mac born Miles MacGregor in 1980 in Los Angeles is an internationally acclaimed muralist and painter celebrated for luminous photorealistic portraits that pulse with compassion. Raised by an artist mother and engineer father he grew up surrounded by Chicano culture classical European painting and devotional imagery all of which feed his signature style of radiating contour lines that wrap tender faces in rippling halos of light. Beginning with graffiti in the mid 1990s he refined aerosol technique into a perfectionist craft that honors ordinary marginalized or overlooked people translating their dignity onto walls museums and canvases worldwide.

His murals rise like secular altars on buildings in Los Angeles Phoenix Brussels Phnom Penh Havana Berlin Dublin Singapore and beyond commissioned by institutions such as the Groeninge Museum San José Museum of Art QAGOMA Brisbane Fondazione Prada and Northeastern University. Whether portraying a Navajo weaver gazing upward above the historic American Hotel or a stooped Mexican laborer rendered in technicolor spray he treats every subject with reverence aiming to uplift viewers through careful observation of human resilience. Working mostly at night he builds thin veils of pigment that glow beneath streetlights creating batteries of emotion meant to outlast their weathered surfaces. El Mac continues to advocate for public art as civic love insisting that monumental beauty belongs not to the wealthy but to the everyday souls who inhabit the city.

"It is mid-winter in America; a man-made season of shattered dreams and shocked citizens, fumbling and frustrated beneath the crush of greed of corporate monsters and economic manipulators gone wild(...) We must all do what we can for each other to weather this blizzard. Now more than ever all the family must be together; to comfort, to protect, to guide, to survive..."
-Gil Scott-Heron ('75)
