Introduction to Printmaking
The aim for this project was to create a finely crafted well thought out book that encompasses one or several themes discussed during the semester including: the exploration of memory as it contrasts with current environment and circumstances. Through photographic exploration we investigated the architecture and landscape around us, converting the photographic image into a representation and then a negotiation with matrix as a material. We also addressed how to choose words in an impactful and concise way, and how to utilize text to as a means to negotiate meanings. We also explored our shared place in society through appropriation of images and the creation of new relationships that redefine what is recognized in them. With the creation of this book, the students were asked to highlight some of their realizations, to search for connections in the individual prints, and to push the work into a cohesive concrete object. Types of Narrative models used: Non- Sequential, Disjointed or Disrupted Narrative style, Multi-linear Narrative, Branching Narrative and Ergodic Narrative.
