Description
Carborundum Collagraph
MEDIUM: PRINTMAKING
Joyce Silverstone
During this workshop, students will explore making monotype transfer drawings and carborundum collagraph plates. Transfer drawing is a great way to loosen up and refresh your appreciation for the marks and shapes of the natural world. We will employ these “sketches” to provide the imagery for making our collagraphs.
The term collagraph stems from the Greek, “colla” being derived from the verb “to glue”. The collagraph is composed of layers of materials that are glued or attached to a substrate. We will explore one way of making a collagraph, by gluing carborundum grit to plastic plates. Students will learn how to make the plates on the first day of the workshop, and we will ink and print them on day two. There will be time to practice intaglio wiping methods using Akua Inks, and to experiment with layering plates together on the third day of the workshop.
