Bio

Jay LaCouture is an artist, educator, and print-maker. He created a clothing line with his friends in 2004 called AntiDesigns that transformed info a professional silkscreen studio. In 2011, he quit his day job to pursue AntiDesigns fulltime. The studio has created prints for various clients throughout the country, with some highlights being Sam Adams, Truly, York Athletics, Levi’s, Converse, ‘47, RedBull, Live Nation, Ghostface Killah, and MF Doom. Since 2015, Jay has been developing the live screen printing experience in Boston, where he brings screen printing to different events throughout the city. This takes printmaking out of the studio and into spaces where people can interact with and sometimes even create prints in their own environments.
