Multi-plate print from two etched plates with +ve and -ve versions of the photo that were inked in red and black. The plates were then pressed separately into the same piece of paper.
This experimental print was created by pressing the same (generously) inked plate onto two different types of paper. The first pressing was onto corrogated paper to produce horizontal ink lines on the plate and the second (main) pressing was onto fine art paper. Two for the price of one!
For best viewing, activate ‘lightbox’ mode by clicking on small cross at top right of any image.
There are several ways of adding colour to a print, before and/or after printing, usually with coloured inks. This print incorporates the Chine coleé process to add colour without using ink. The original photo was taken in a sardine ‘museum’ at Lisbon airport.
