About the Instructor

Devon Hugdahl is a Rochester-based screen printer whose hand-pulled posters blend bold color and vintage imagery. Working out of his home studio, Hugdahl sources inspiration from public domain materials (wildlife manuals, nurse guides, antique ads) and transforms them into limited-edition gig posters and art prints.

A former preparator at the John Michael Kohler Arts Center and Technical Services staff at the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, Hugdahl studied Photography and Fine Arts at UW–Milwaukee. He honed his screen-printing skills at Firecracker Studios in Madison, learning under master printer Sam Johnson.

Hugdahl’s work keeps analog printmaking alive in a digital age. Each poster is a celebration of texture, process, and imperfection. His recent projects include a water-themed public awareness series with Minnesota Water Stewards. Hugdahl created a site specific installation as part of the current exhibition Cyclone at Rochester Art Center on view through March 2026.
