A project involving design of patterns for textile screen print.
An extra fun technique which proves that
one doesn`t really need that much to have fun:)
It involves designing the print, converting it to black and white image, where the black is the part which is going to be printed. Then the image is printed on piece of plastic sheet. This little fella is then exposed in a screening machine, on the flat side of the frame, with which we are going to print. There is a thin mesh stretched on the frame, with a portion of it covered with a thin layer of photosensitive emulsion. When exposed, it becomes weaker in the places where the image is black, leaving the rest of the image as a negative. Then the mesh washed to bring out this negative.
Once dried, we are ready to have fun! It`s up to our imagination to use different colours,
surfaces and show off with the result :)
