Zea Mays Printmaking/Photographic Silk Aquatint

Photographic Silk Aquatint

Researchers: Mady Lacaprucia and McKenzie Stuetzel
2017


Our goal was to research a new method of producing a photographic intaglio plate using screen printing techniques and materials. 

While we worked on refining the steps of this process to create prints that represent the original image as closely as possible, we discovered there are also many stylistic and experimental twists that can be brought to this method of printmaking through the manipulation of screen printing mesh, bitmap settings, methods for applying emulsion, exposure times, wash-out techniques, and refinements to the edge of the plates.
