Suminagashi experimental print made of ink. - Limited Edition of 1 Print

The creative experiment shows working with ink and alcohol. It is made by a simple suminagashi technique and copied by a template. The process was complicated because the water shifts at the same time the ink shifts on it. The technique is made on special paper for Suminagashi. The image shows the leaves of the plant "monstera deliciosa". The water that is soaked at the endpoints in the printing experiment makes the image simple and aesthetically placed. The whole form of internal spills is obtained only from the water and the ink that moves on it. A new universe is created only by the movement of air on the water. The balance between black and white, between light and dark spots, is sought. The experiment was done out of pure curiosity. It turned out well after using ten different sheets of paper. Some of them got the desired result, others were smeared with water. The Suminagashi technique allows work that is unpredictable. You never know what will happen in the end. Water and ink follow their own pace and work together. The difficulty arises when you need to display the desired image. Water penetrates around the leaf and sometimes smears, drips or absorbs, which is why you need to work very quickly and calmly. Visually, the technique resembles the bark of a tree. Most people notice this. "Personally, I notice a new universe moving at its own pace." Working with the Suminagashi technique calms down the whole existence, as the process directs the thought to the present moment. "Here and Now" resembles Tibetan meditation and the creation of mandalas, instead of destroying the image, is transferred to paper. The whole process is meditative, easy, and achievable. It only becomes more difficult when copying is done with a template.
