Inspiration has also been taken from the Japanese woodblock printmaking art movement known as Shin-hanga (New prints), which merged together Ukiyo-e traditions from the East with European influences. This contemporary Japanese style circular landscape art print on Somerset Soft White Satin paper, hand pulled by the artist in her Brighton printmaking studio, is the third print in this series that compliment each other when hung together. The other artworks are Moonlight Through The Trees and Moon Over The Plain. Technique This print was created by assembling a digital collage, made up of photographs taken on travels, before being taken into the print studio. The image was printed on a transparency and a mesh screen was coated in a light sensitive emulsion, which was left to dry in a dark room. When dry, the image was exposed onto the screen using UV light, with the black parts of the image blocking out the light, meaning that the emulsion didn’t harden on the darker parts of the image. The screen was then washed to remove any unexposed emulsion, leaving the image on the screen to be printed. Ink and graphite powder were mixed with printing medium and a squeegee was hand pulled to push the ink through the mesh on the areas of the exposed image, onto paper to create the finished screenprint.
