A journey to unknown - Limited Edition 1 of 5 Print

The graphic is printed in a technique called "colagraphy". The name comes from a word "collage" which is a main characteristic of the cliché from which is printed. Since there was no option to pick that technique, I will explain it here. It is an old technique where you use a cardboard as a base. Various materials that leave textures can be applied (like collage), or only a thick wood glue can be used (each move with a brush is later seen when printing). A drawing may also be engraved (directly into a cardboard or on a plastic which is glued on surface of cliché) into which the paint is tinted. The excess color is removed. Wet paper is placed over the cliché and it all goes through the press. The graphic is printed in only 5 copies, one of which is for sale (number of this print is - 4/5). Size of print is 29x49.5 cm on a paper 50x70 cm. The work is on Fabriano 230g paper.
