Embossed lino prints.

Three recycled papers were made using waste printed packaging and leaflets. The three colours most commonly found in the packaging materials were separated and used to create the three paper colours - grey, white and brown.

The paper colours and the flecks of other colours introduced suggested three materials - concrete, sand and wood. Photographs were taken of these materials - textured concrete of the Hunterian at Glasgow Uni, sand on Calgary Beach, Mull and bark from a tree in Pollok Park (plus a microscopic image of wood fibre). From these images, with the help of a little scripting, embossing plates and linocuts were made to create a set of three 3D prints.

 

Each print measures 135x135mm
