Item Description

"I quickly decided to let my artwork reflect and express the printing process itself. That seemed more interesting to me than the final image alone. I wanted to "construct" my final print by combining and manipulating 1) the artwork transparency, 2) the exposed plate, 3) the printed image and 4) the paper on which it was printed. In this way, four layers are combined and the transparency, translucency and opacity of the layers create a real physical and visual depth to the final artwork. The print evolves from 2D to 3D. Rotating and reversing or flipping these four elements also allowed me to create more complexity and richness in the final piece. Finally, by using all of the physical elements in the process, color became important as well--the printed image is black, the plate is a beautiful translucent blue and the original artwork transparency could have some color applied to it as well."
