The
Story (in a nutshell):
As
a part of my thesis exhibition i designed an alphabet that was intended
to make a unique series of 26 prints. i say 'intended' because half-way
through the project, i slipped a disc in my lower back and was told
that the repetition of bending over the table to pull prints could
cause permanent, irreparable damage to my back. After some encouraging
conversations with a sculpture professor, i decided to instead turn
the project into an installation mural in response to the injury,
capitalizing on the fact that screen printing on a wall would require
no bending. So, after prepping a 25 foot stretch of wall, i gratefully
utilized the invaluable assistance of the students from my screen
printing class to execute the project. The results were impressive.
The background was essentially a 25'x3' test print using the process
cyan, magenta, and yellow with the entire alphabet in black laid out
on top from Z to A. |
