Printing process

  1. The artist paints the work on a large paper canvas.
  2. The paper is scanned to an image file in a large format scanner.
  3. The image is divided into colours, and each colour is printed in black ink on a transparent.
  4. The silkscreen is covered with emulsion and dried.
  5. The transparent is fixed to the silkscreen and the screen is exposed using a powerful lamp.
  6. The unhardened emulsion is washed off with water.
  7. The silkscreen is fastened on top of a printing table, and the printing paper is placed underneath.
  8. Paint is applied and pressed through the silkscreen onto the printing paper using a squeegee.
  9. The print is left to dry in a rack.
  10. Steps 4 to 9 are repeated for each colour.
