Etchings : On-going 2024 -
Since 2024 I’ve been going to an etching workshop every week to learn various techniques for print making. My reasons for working in a new medium began with a simple need to take a step away from my daily creative work in programming on the computer. I wanted to work with pure materials and explore gesture as a means for mark making.
At the same time my experience in generative practices on the screen became a way to inform what I was searching to create on the etching plate. Indeed, some of the images presented here are directly linked to an earlier series entitled Neural Drawings. A series in which I had aleady used printing techniques to explore the material qualities of the printed image. At the same time, this weekly practice has led to completely new means of expression.
More images along with more textual context will be presented on other pages in the future.
