This piece is from my thesis work. It is a screenprint (silk screen) on wood. Materials: Wood, ink, varnish. In my screenprints I often make one-off's like this one rather than print a series (set).
emm hard to say, just catches the eye like a flytrap!!
i'd say it's a piece that takes time to understand - and i love brainwrecking
plus, the technique in new to me and is of so much interest as an artistic way of expression that it made me look it up.
could you spare a couple of words on how you made it?
Thank you!
Sure.
The image is a vintage image.
I altered it in Photoshop.
Coarse halftone.
Transferred to silk screen,
Printed Black on to thin piece of smooth wood,
Red dye, hand applied
And also some hand painting.
