PRINTMAKING / MONOPRINTING
Influenced by lockdown restrictions in 2020, I experimented with monoprint by testing different brands of ink and watercolour paper for their durability when printed and "rinsed" or "washed out" multiple times.
Developed with experiments of layering and abstraction to disrupt my control of the original monoprint image, this technique attempts to imitate the way the mind can influence and distort the recollection of memories.

Detach︎︎︎ is body of work developed in 2020.
These records are extracted from dreams, I have incredibly vivid dreams that often flow on from each other. I love documenting this subconcious world and seeing influences and their evolution.
Still recording, I look forward to having the time to create my next series of monoprint dreamscapes.

“Detach, Behind the Process” is a book I created in late 2021. This project was my second (more thorough) introduction to indesign at uni. Here I desired to share my learnings from the previous year with others and introduce the versatile and accessible medium of monoprint to others. Detach presents a toolkit, tutorial, exploration of different techniques and insight to my practice through a portfolio book.One day I hope to better document, collaborate and share the practice of the wonderful people in my printmaking community. I believe sharing knowledge, our experimentation and building our community is of upmost importance in our fractured digital age.
