2nd August 2017

I decided to practice some screen printing at this Open Access Day at the Regional Print Centre. I had a few goals that I wanted to achieve during this day.

  • Create some textured prints to be used in the Artist Books with Estella Scholes workshop running the following day.
  • Prepare a Screen and Print from it to gain experience of using the light box.
  • Practice some gradient printing.

I decided to create a stencil from newsprint as a start to the practice of creating some textured prints.

 

I then experimented with adding ink directly to the screen for a more textured look a feel.

 

Once I had cleaned the screen, I then experimented further with gradients.

 

Finally, I prepared an image on a screen ready for printing and then printed that image and included some of the gradient prints too. As an experimental day, very happy with the results.

Michelle weaves traditional and digital forms with overlooked domestic objects, tracing memory, belonging, and displacement as metaphors for her own lived journey. Her work is an invitation to feel and remember, to unmask what lies beneath, and to step into the visibility of being seen.
