Digital Interface with Hand Printing
These exercises explore various filters through which digital language is rendered into a more tangible result. The prints among this group incorporate an element of digital interface. The photo lithograph utilized digital drawing followed by digital inkjet print outputs of subsequent layers on clear film. Then the films were transferred to a light sensitive lithography plate that was ultimately rolled in colors by hand and printed on a traditional printing press. The screen print was the result of laser printed digital outputs on paper that is rendered translucent by rubbing oil into the printed paper. The translucent papers were then transferred to a light sensitive printing screen. Then ink was pulled through the screen by hand to create hand pulled prints. The laser engraved woodcut is the result of a digital image that is engraved onto wood using a digital engraving machine. Following the digital engraving process, the wood block was inked using a hand inking roller and printed on a traditional printing press.
