Puma Press

posted by POP Members June 25, 2021

Puma press is a graphic design studio and screen printing atelier run by artists Esther Vandenbroele, a painter, and Arne Wastyn, a graphic artist. Their screen printing studio in Antwerp (Belgium) is a place where both of their art practices come together, and where new ideas arise for designs, screen printed posters, and t-shirts.

Whether designing for a client, or for themselves, the duo always have screen printing on their mind. Both artists enjoyed a great childhood filled with early 2000 cartoons, and love to use bright colours and goofy illustrations within their designs. “We think the fantastical element within our designs provides a break from our daily routines, and Puma Press will take you on a journey. We want Puma Press to be is filled with colourful posters and weird objects,” comment the duo.

The inspiration for the studio’s name, Puma, came from a round trip they took through the west coast of America; “We are both fans of nature and animals, and both like the puma because on one side the puma is a sweet cuddly cat, and on the other hand it can be a dangerous predator. The ideal mascot for the both of us.”

Their studio is home to a screen printing table which they use to print on paper, and a screen printing carousel for printing tees and hoodies.
