Each participating printmaker creates and submits a limited edition of ten prints specifically for the International Print Exchange. These prints are created using a recognised fine art printmaking technique with archival materials. Of the ten prints submitted, Green Door Printmaking Studio keeps two; the first for our archive and exhibition; the second for sale to fund future exchange projects (in return, if sold, this printmaker will receive free entry to the following year's exchange).

The remaining prints are randomised and sorted, and each printmaker receives eight random prints in return from all printmakers all over the world.
