SILK SCREEN PRINTING:



Slik screen printing with a photographically exposed screen is more of a slower process. For this i required a silk screen ready and coated in photographic emulsion, access to a light exposure unit, and a large scale photocopier to produce my logo onto assatate.

The first thing to do is produce my logo on assatate by photocopying onto assatate to my desired scale. Then I place the assatate logo with the silk screen in the light exposure unit to create my 'stencil'.
After finding the right colour of ink and mixing with Binder, I go on to pull ink over the entire logo stencil onto various papers and materials.
